Don’t mind it pink, mine still had a pulse.
Think I’ll leave it to the experts once we can eat out, these were sirloin steaks. How much is a piece of fillet?

I like mine on the rare side of medium rare, either fillet or sirloin.
I fry it on cast iron, letting the pan or griddle heat up for at least ten minutes, at level 7.5 out of 10, so medium high heat. Depending on the thickness, I give it between three and five minutes on each side to get a great crust. I have used sous vide a few times, and that is almost always perfect, but its a bit of a faff.

Medium rare for me and more on the rare side than medium. I can’t stand well done streak. I prefer fillet but a good piece of sirloin from the butchers is ok. Leave out to come up to room temperature before cooking and it needs to rest for a short time afterwards.

I use a hot griddle pan, no oil, season the steak (a decent rib eye or fillet, never rump) into the pan, 3 minutes each side, then rest for 3 minutes to let it become more tender.
Was told, imagine how tight your butt cheeks would be if you sat in a hot griddle pan, and then imagine them relaxing as they cool down, its the same for steak! Overcook it, and it will be like eating a shoe. We like to chuck in some butter, thyme and garlic sometimes. One of my favourite meals. Have been making triple cooked chips in lock down as we have had the time. They are nice too! Naughty but nice...

Sandra I have found theres only usually a pound or so difference between most steaks, Aldi have excellent prices on steak and are tasty.

We left it out for 30 mins and let it rest for five minutes after, I might get some fillet if I can afford it!

Fillet will be at least 50% more expensive than sirloin so I would persevere with the sirloin until you are happy with how you are cooking it.
Nearly all of the advice is good, apart from using a grill, as you should always use a pan. No one has mentioned the thickness and to achieve correct cooking times the steak must be at least 3cm thick. So raw steak at room temperature, oil steak and not the pan, liberally season, no more than 3 minutes each side and rest for 5 minutes. If you do go for the fillet then the steak should be at least 5cm thick and after browning all over finish in the oven for about 3 minutes Use a meat thermometer if you are not sure how done the meat is. No steak should ever be cooked more than medium. |
