Method

  1. Press the 4 sirloin steaks into a plate of crushed black peppercorns. Transfer the steaks to a plate and leave to infuse with the pepper for 3-4 hrs or overnight in the fridge. Bring the steaks up to room temperature before frying. Heat a splash of oil in a frying pan and sear the steaks for 1 min on each side to seal. Reduce the heat, add a knob of butter and cook for another 4 mins, turning once. Transfer to a plate and allow to rest. To serve, cut each steak into thin slices and thread onto small wooden skewers. Serve with small bowls of good-quality, ready-made Bearnaise sauce as a dip.

    Can these be frozen at the infusion stage, so that they are then ready to cook on the day?

    These are really nice and look good on a platter - very easy especially if you forget the marination stage - like I did - woops! Still very good though - but be sure to get a good quality sauce for dipping - there is no where to hide!

    I used a mixture of ground black pepper and sechzuan peppercorns that I muddled first with a pestle & mortar. I peppered the steaked and then sliced them before threading them so that I could cook them under the grill & then serve straight away. I served them with Atkins & Potts bearnaise sauce which was yummy.
