PREP TIME: Under 30 Minutes

COOK TIME: Under 30 Minutes

SERVES: 1-2

Ingredients

• 1 x 600g T-bone steak, at room temperature
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to season
• Olive oil, to drizzle
• 100g butter
• 8-10 cloves of black garlic
• A few sprigs of rosemary, chopped
• 120g fine green beans, blanched
• 10g toasted pine nuts

To Serve:

• Mustard

Method

1. Pat the steak dry using a paper towel. Season well with sea salt and black pepper on both sides, and drizzle with olive oil.
2. Place a Le Creuset 28cm Signature Frying Pan on high heat. Hold the steak with a pair of tongs and place the fat side directly on the hot pan to render until crispy and golden. Cook the steak to your liking on either side.
3. Add the butter and sliced black garlic to the pan. Baste the steak with the foaming hot butter continually for ultimate flavour and create a crust. Remove the steak from the pan to rest.
4. Toss the blanched beans in the warm flavoured butter. Remove them from the pan and into a serving dish, season, and top with toasted pine nuts.
5. Slice the steak and top with the remaining butter and black garlic.

Tip: Black garlic is fermented and aged. It has a very distinctive sweet-savoury flavour that adds another layer of Umami to your finished dish.
