T-bone steak with atchar-anchovy butter

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

For the atchar-anchovy butter:

250 g butter, at room temperature
2 cloves garlic, finely crushed
50 g anchovy fillets, drained and finely chopped
50 g hot mango atchar
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the confetti onions:

2 onions, thinly sliced
2 T flour
sunflower oil, for frying

For the steak:

1 T extra virgin olive oil
2 T-bone steaks

Method

1. To make the butter, mix the butter, garlic, anchovies and atchar, then season and set aside.

2. To make the confetti onions, soak the onions in cold water for 5 minutes, then drain and toss in the flour. Dust off any excess flour, then fry in the oil until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper and season to taste.

3. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based pan over a high heat. Season the steaks, then cook for 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking.

4. Remove the steaks from the pan, top with the atchar butter and allow to rest for 10 minutes.

5. Slice the steaks and serve with the crispy onions.
