You can serve this dish as a plated meal, or if everyone’s glued to the television, turn the recipe into gourmet steak sandwiches (as pictured) which can be eaten on laps. To make this dish into a steak sandwich, allow the cooked steaks to rest for 5 minutes covered with foil, then place onto crusty bread with a handful of salad leaves, the grilled garlic mushrooms and a good drizzle of balsamic glaze.
Ingredients
3 Quality Mark beef eye filleti
¼ cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves
4-8 field mushrooms
⅓ tsp salt
⅓ tsp black pepper
½ cup balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp brown sugar
Method
Set your oven to 220°C grill.
Crush the garlic cloves and stir them into the oil. Brush the steaks and the mushrooms with the garlicky oil. Then season the steaks lightly with a little salt and pepper.
Place the mushrooms under the grill and cook until tender. While the mushrooms are cooking, heat a frying pan or grill plate until smoking hot.
Add the steaks and reduce the heat to medium. Cook them for 2 minutes, turning once halfway through the cooking time.
Great as a sandwich, or with creamy mash, or risotto and salad. Top with the cooked mushrooms and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
Combine the vinegar and brown sugar in a small saucepan and simmer gently for around 5 minutes until slightly thickened. The glaze will become more syrupy as it cools.
Balsamic glaze can be stored in the fridge for several weeks.
