Ingredients
- 2 x 200g rump steak about 2-3cm thick
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 large garlic clove, bashed once
- 1 sprig thyme or rosemary (optional)
Method
- STEP 1
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Pat them dry and season. - STEP 2
Preheat a non-stick, heavy-based frying pan over very high heat. Add oil, then butter, garlic, and steaks, arranging the herbs around them. Use tongs to turn the steaks every 30 seconds to 1 minute to develop a nice brown crust. Generally, each steak will take about 3 minutes total for rare, 4-5 minutes for medium, and 7-8 minutes for well done. If you have a digital cooking thermometer, the internal temperature should be 50°C for rare, 60°C for medium, and 70°C for well done. For steaks with a thick fat layer on the side, hold the steak with tongs and sear the fat in the pan for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. - STEP 3
Transfer the steaks to a plate, cover with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
