3. Place onto a baking tray and place in the preheated oven, cook for 15-20 minutes until the top is golden brown.
4. Once the cheese has had 5 minutes, lightly sprinkle the sourdough baguette with water and bake in the oven for 10 minutes from chilled, or 15 minutes from frozen.
5. Once the cheese and baguette are done, remove from the oven and rest the cheese for 1 minute. Slice the baguette and serve alongside the cheese and cornichons.
Chef’s tip – If you have any rosemary, pick small sprigs and press into the Camembert before baking

6. Decant the potatoes onto a baking tray and spread evenly. Place into the centre of the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden.
7. While the roasted new potatoes and chateaubriand are in the oven, remove the packaging from the Tenderstem broccoli and place on a baking tray. Season with some salt and olive oil.
8. When the chateaubriand and gratin have 10 minutes left, place the Tenderstem broccoli in the oven.
9. Once cooked, remove everything from the oven with the potatoes and leave to stand for 2 minutes. Rest the beef for 3-5 minutes.
10. Decant the red onion jus into a microwaveable container. Warm up for 1 minute (1000W), 1 minutes 30 seconds (750/850W). Alternatively decant it into a saucepan and bring to simmer on a low heat.
11. When you’re ready to serve, spoon the lemon and herb aioli onto a side plate and spread around the plate, place the hot Tenderstem broccoli on top. After the Chateaubriand has rested and depending on how/where you’re going to serve it, either use your sharpest knife to slice even, thick slices to add to plates in the kitchen or carefully transfer to your best serving plate and take to the table to carve there. Pour over the hot red onion jus, serve the roasted new potatoes on a serving dish then place everything in the centre of the table and share.
