In a second small bowl, mix 2/3 of gremolata with butter for the steak and set aside.
Remove steak from oven, tent with foil, and rest 10 min while you prepare the baby purees.
In a food processor, make the purees by blending 1/2 cup sweet potatoes with 1 oz beef and 1/2 cup water until smooth and the desired consistency.
