Sirloin Steak with Red Wine Jus, Potatoes and Peas in Ouzo, and Roast Onion
John's quarter-final main: a roasted sirloin steak with a red wine jus, potatoes and peas cooked in ouzo, and a roast onion. The aniseed ouzo proved divisive and the roast onion was firmer than ideal.
Guest judge: "The steak is perfectly cooked, perfectly rested - on its own, absolutely delicious. However, what I'm really struggling with is the potato and peas; the ouzo is far too strong."
Guest judge: "The red wine jus - you're almost drinking a glass of wine with your steak, but not in a good way."
Guest judge: "There were certain flavors that were never going to work; I'm not sure this is a cohesive plate."
Judge: "I love the steak, but the onion isn't as soft and meltingly wonderful as I'd expect."
