Difficulty: Medium
Ingredients
- Crying Tiger Butter
Instructions
- Place the ingredients for the crying tiger butter into the bowl of a food processor. Blend until smooth. Alternatively, mix by hand with a fork.
- Transfer the butter to a sheet of baking paper. Fold the baking paper over the butter and roll to form a cylinder. Twist the ends. Place in the freezer until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 100°C/200°F.
- Generously season the steak with salt.
- Heat a frying pan over high heat. When it’s hot, drizzle with oil and then add the steak. Cook for 3-4 minutes, turning often or until a good crust forms but the steak still feels soft when pressed (you should aim to take it off while it’s rare).
- If your frying pan is oven-proof, transfer it into the oven to continue gently cooking for another 3-4 minutes or until almost cooked to your liking. Or transfer the steak to a baking tray and place that into the oven.
- In the meantime, take the firm butter out of the freezer and slice 2 generous rounds. Place onto the steak and allow it to melt in the oven.
- Remove from the oven. Rest for a couple of minutes, then serve.
