Ingredients (serves 2):
- 2 good sized cuts of steak (sirloin or rump)
- Mixed peppercorns
- Pinch of salt
- 4 teaspoons of dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Good sized knob of butter
- Mixed vegetables
- Potatoes for mashing
Start by heating the oven up to 190 degrees C. Cut the steaks into half or thirds to make 4 inch square ish shapes. Rub them with the dijon mustard on both sides before grinding over some mixed peppercorns and a dash of salt. Take an oven proof pan and put it on a high heat on the hob, add a little olive oil and then place the steaks in. Cook briefly until seared and turn over and repeat. Add the large knob of butter to the pan and let it melt. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for 4-7 minutes until cooked to your preference. The butter sauce should go a nice golden colour and really infuse the steaks with a warming flavour. Once cooked to your liking remove the pan from the oven and leave the steak to rest for a few minutes. Be careful when handling the pan as the handle will be very hot!
Serve with some mashed potatoes and veg that has been par-boiled and then oven roasted with some rosemary and olive oil. Enjoy!
