Method
step 1
Preheat the oven to fan 160C/conventional 180C/gas 4. Tip the wedges into a roasting tin and toss them in the oil and thyme. Roast for 35-45 minutes, turning once, until they’re crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.
step 2
About 15 minutes before the wedges are ready, remove the rind from the goat’s cheese and discard, then cut into chunks. Put it into a small bowl and microwave on Medium for 1 minute to melt. Beat in the crème fraîche, return to the microwave and heat for another minute on Medium until the cheese and crème fraîche have melted into a sauce. Season with salt and the peppercorns and stir.
step 3
Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Season the steaks with black pepper and cook them for 2 minutes on each side for rare, or up to 4 minutes on each side for well done. Divide the sauce between two bowls for dipping.
