Step 4
For spiced beans, heat the oil in a frying pan over low-medium heat and cook the garlic for around 1 minute, until fragrant but not brown. Add the capsicum and cook for 2-3 minutes, and then add the beans, lemon juice and paprika and toss to warm through. Season to taste and fold the parsley through before serving.

Step 5
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan and cook the steaks for 3 minutes each side for medium. The mixture will catch a little in the pan, but it makes a delicious crust on the beef.
Tips
-
For a more textural marinade, finely chop the ingredients or pound them in a mortar and pestle.
-
To save time, drain a tin of pineapple instead of using a fresh one.
-
Try swapping the blade steaks for rump, sirloin or veal schnitzels.
