1 Prepare the Ingredients
Peel and cut sweet potato into evenly-sized large chunks. Bring a medium pot with sweet potato chunks covered by water to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, 14-18 minutes.
Reserve 1 cup potato cooking water. Drain potatoes in a colander and return to pot.Add cream cheese, garlic salt (reserve a pinch for asparagus) and 2 Tbsp. potato cooking water. If too thick, add remaining potato cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Cover and set aside.While potato boils, peel and slice shallot into very thin rounds.Trim woody ends off asparagus.Pat steaks dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. -
2 Roast the Asparagus

Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 Tbsp. olive oil.Test oil temperature by adding a piece of shallot to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.Add shallot to hot pan and stir occasionally until browned and crispy, 4-5 minutes.Transfer to towel-lined plate. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean. -
4 Cook the Steak
