Recipe Tips

  • Can I use another cut of beef? Yes—rib-eye or flank steak will also grill beautifully.
  • How to get smoky veg flavor? Ensure the griddle pan is hot and don’t crowd the vegetables.
  • Is the anchovy necessary? It deepens the ratatouille flavor but can be omitted if preferred.
  • Can I make without dairy? Swap yoghurt for a dairy-free alternative or omit.
  • How to check steak doneness? Touch with fingertip—firmer means more well done; slice to serve.

What To Serve With Grilled Steak

This meal stands alone but also pairs beautifully with:

  • Green salad with lemon vinaigrette
  • Steamed greens or asparagus
  • Oven-roasted baby potatoes
  • Crusty garlic bread or flatbread
  • Chilled rosé or light red wine

How To Store Grilled Steak Dinner

Refrigerate: Store components separately (steak, ratatouille, rice) in sealed containers for up to 2 days.
Reheat: Gently rewarm rice and sauce; quickly reheat steak slices in a hot pan or oven for best texture.
Do Not Freeze: Steak quality diminishes after freezing, though ratatouille and rice can be frozen separately.

FAQs

Can I cook the rice in advance?

Yes—cook and refrigerate; reheat with a splash of water before serving.

What to do if I don’t like anchovy?

Use a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce for umami without anchovy.

Can I make this gluten-free?

Yes—ensure passata and harissa are gluten-free. Rice and steak are naturally gluten-free.

Is this spicy?

Mildly—harissa adds a warm heat. Use less if you prefer mellow flavors.
