- Shape the flavoured butter into a cylinder on a piece of greaseproof paper and roll up tightly.
- Refrigeratein the refrigerator for 10 to 15 min.
- Meanwhile trim off any excess fat from the steaks season well and brush lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
- Heat a ridged skillet or possibly ovenproof frying pan on the floor of the roasting ovenfor 10 min then place on the boiling plate.
- Add in the steaks and cook over a high heat turning just once.
- Allow about 1 to 1 1/2 min per side for rare 2 to 2 1/2 min per side for mediumrare and 4 min per side for welldone steaks.
- Transfer the steaks to warmed serving plates and top each one with several slices of the flavoured butter.
- Serve with roast new potatoes and a rocket or possibly watercress salad.
- To test how well steak is cooked press it gently. If rare the steaks will seem soft and give readily. If medium the meat will be hard on the outside but with plenty of give in the centre. If well done it will be completely hard with no give at all.
