Equipment

  • large pan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pieces ribeye or sirloin steaks 8oz/225g each
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup double cream 120ml
  • ¼ cup beef stock 60ml
  • ¼ cup Parmesan 25g, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon chilli flakes optional
  • Fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • Pat the steaks properly dry with kitchen roll. Rub with olive oil and season both sides loads with salt and pepper.
  • Get a large pan on medium-high heat. Chuck in the butter. When it's sizzling, lay the steaks in and cook 3-4 minutes each side for medium-rare. Don't move them about!
  • Take steaks out, stick them on a plate, and cover loosely with foil.
  • Turn heat down to medium. Bung in the garlic and cook 30 seconds till it smells gorgeous.
  • Pour in the stock and scrape up all those brown bits stuck to the pan.
  • Add the cream and let it bubble for 2-3 minutes till it thickens up a bit.
  • Chuck in the Parmesan, mustard, and chilli flakes if using. Stir till the cheese melts.
  • Squeeze in the lemon juice and give it a stir.
  • Put the steaks back in with any juices from the plate. Spoon sauce over them and let them warm through for a minute or two.
  • Scatter parsley on top and serve with loads of that sauce!

Notes

Dry those steaks properly – makes all the difference. Room temperature is best – take them out 30 mins before. Leave them alone while cooking – that's how you get the crust. Get a thermometer – 52°C rare, 57°C medium-rare, 63°C medium. Let them rest – 5 minutes minimum. Scrape those pan bits – that's where the flavour is. Watch that garlic – burns dead quick. Don't boil the cream – keep it gentle. Lemon in last – keeps it fresh. Leftovers keep 3 days – reheat gently.
