Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick frying pan and add ½tbsp olive oil. Season the steaks and add to the pan. Sear for 2 mins on one side, turn over and cook for 1 min or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the pan and leave to rest on a warm plate.
Steam the beans over simmering water for 5 mins.
Add the wine to the steak pan and bubble quickly for 1 min to make gravy. Stir in 50ml (2fl oz) water, season and remove from the heat.
Mash the parsnips with the remaining olive oil, nutmeg and a little of the cooking water.
Serve the steak with the mash and beans on the side and the red wine gravy poured over the top.
