About

Ask your butcher to slice the meat in half horizontally, stopping just before he cuts all the way through so that the steak opens out like a book. I love to serve this with buttered noodles and you might even like to add a few peas to the omelette for a spotted effect.

Ingredients

1 small celery stalk
1 small carrot, peeled and roughly chopped
1 large red onion, roughly chopped

Main course
Gluten-free

Method

Put the celery, carrot and onion in a processor and pulse until they are finely chopped, or do so by hand. Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a flameproof casserole and fry the chopped vegetables over medium heat until they are nicely golden. Add the tomatoes and parsley and cook for about 5 minutes,
