BAVETTE STEAK with Porcini mushrooms

Preparation Time: 10 minutes. Cooking Time: 15 minutes. Serves Two. Ingredients: Two British beef bavette steaks, 1tsp Porcini mushroom powder, 2tsp sesame oil, mashed potato, sprouting broccoli, thick stems halved lengthways, 1tbsp unsalted butter, 1tbsp soy sauce, plus extra to serve, mixed exotic mushrooms and two garlic cloves, thinly sliced

Take your steaks out of the fridge 30 minutes ahead of cooking. Preheat the oven to very low and warm three plates. Rub the steaks with the Porcini powder and a teaspoon of oil. Season and set aside to marinate for five to ten minutes. Meanwhile, make the mashed potato. Steam the broccoli for for four to five minutes until tender. Put a non-stick pan over a high heat. Sear the steaks for two minutes on each side, depending on thickness, flipping after each minute. During the last 30 seconds, add a knob of butter to the pan, melt and spoon over the meat. Lift the steaks onto a plate, splash with soy sauce, cover loosely and put in the oven. Add the remaining teaspoon of oil and butter to the hot pan, then toss in the mushrooms and garlic; season. Fry over a high heat for two minutes until golden. Slice the steaks across the grain and serve with the mushrooms, resting juices, the mash and broccoli, and a dash more soy sauce, if liked.
