A steak sandwich is perfect for a quick supper or lunch.
1. Cut the steaks into desired portions-try not to cut them too thick
2. Lay them out flat in a large dish and scatter the dry ingredients over the steaks. There is not need to peel the garlic-just chop it up quite roughly.
3. Cover with the olive oil and leave to rest for at least a couple of hours.
4. Because this is a mildly flavoured marinade you can leave it for up to 2-3 days.
Heat the pan and cook as follows:
Rare-2 minutes on either side
Medium- 4 minutes on either side
Well Done- 5 minutes on either side
Try not to over agitate the meat whilst it is on the pan, rather instead turning it just once.
5. Garnish:
Peel some flat cap mushrooms and brush them lightly with oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place on the barbecue or on a hot plate and cook until tender. Toast some bread rolls and serve with the mushrooms, steak & garlic and chive butter. To make the butter simply mix the garlic, chives and butter together.
