The Umami Prime steak is seared to perfection for a deep, caramelised crust, then basted in butter with garlic and fresh herbs to lock in flavour. To balance the richness, it is paired with French beans sautéed with garlic and just-tender tomatoes.
Ingredients
- 1 slab Umami Prime Beef Striploin
- 4 cloves of garlic
- Salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
- 20g butter
- 4 tomatoes, halved
- A handful of French beans
- A few sprigs of fresh thyme
Method
-
Prep the beef: Pat the beef striploin dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Let rest at room temperature for 20–30 minutes.
-
Sear the beef: Heat a pan over high heat until it begins to smoke lightly. Add the cooking oil, then place the beef in the pan. Sear without moving for 2 minutes.
-
Add aromatics: Flip the beef and sear the other side for another 2 minutes. Add butter, garlic cloves, and thyme to the pan. Baste the steak continuously by spooning the melted butter over it for 1–2 minutes.
-
Rest the beef: Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
-
Sauté the vegetables: In the same pan, add the French beans and halved tomatoes. Sauté for 2 minutes in the residual butter and steak juices, then remove from heat.
-
To serve: Arrange the sautéed French beans on a serving plate. Slice the rested beef striploin and place it over the beans. Spoon over any remaining pan glaze and garnish with fresh thyme.
