  • 4 kudu sirloin steaks (150–200g each)
  • Flaky sea salt and coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1 T olive oil
  • 2 T butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 cup cream

Cooking Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Pat the steaks dry and season with salt and pepper. Panfry in heated oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.

Remove and place in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove, cover with foil and leave to rest for 5 minutes.

On the stove, heat the remaining butter in the same pan. Slice the mushrroms, add to the pan and stir-fry over a brisk heat.

Stir in the garlic. Pour in the cream and allow to reduce and thicken. Check seasoning.
