Preheat the oven to 200° C For the puree, on a tray lined with aluminum foil, place the plantains slightly opened from the peel, spread with butter, and wrap in aluminum. Bake for 30 minutes or until soft. Cool. Blend the plantains with the heavy cream, salt, and pepper until you get a smooth puree. Mix the puree in a bowl with the starch and flour. On a cutting board, lay out your steak and fill it with the banana puree, sprinkle with cheese, roll it up, and tie it with hemp string. Spread the macha sauce and seal the steak in a hot skillet with a bit of oil. Remove the steak from cooking, wrap in aluminum foil, and place it on a baking tray. Bake for about 30 minutes or until the desired doneness. Remove and let it rest. For the sauce, heat a pan over medium heat with a bit of oil and sauté the onion and garlic, add the tomato, pasilla chili, and cilantro. Fill with beef broth and orange juice, let it come to a boil and cook until the ingredients soften, season, remove, and cool slightly. Blend the previous preparation until you obtain a smooth sauce. Cut the steak into slices, serve with the sauce, and decorate with cheese and parsley.
