Toss the potato with half the olive oil and rosemary on a baking sheet, season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper, and roast in a 220°C oven, turning once.

Sear the steak
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over high heat, add the beef sirloin steak, and turn once; brush with dijon mustard during the final minute.
