Background

This simple balsamic steak can be ready in just 10 minutes. Serve it with mash and/or steamed veggies or sandwiched in a ciabatta bun with salad. Perfect meal for a midweek supper!

Ingredients

2 sirloin or rump steaks
1 clove garlic, pressed
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 sprigs of thyme
1 Tbsp olive oil
Serving:
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp Greek yogurt (optional)

Instructions

Remove the meat from the refrigerator about an hour before cooking. Wipe it with paper towel.
Mix the oil, vinegar, thyme leaves and garlic. Rub the steaks with the marinade, then rest.
Heat a griddle or frying pan. Add the steak, together with the marinade, and cook for about 2- 3 minutes on each side for medium, or longer if you like it well done.
Transfer the steaks onto a plate and let them rest (covered) for 5 minutes.
Mix the yogurt with the mustard (optional).
Serve with mashed potatoes or French fries - with the yoghurt & mustard sauce if you like.

Tips

If you like gravy, you can make a quick sauce when the steak is resting. Just add a glass of red wine and a drop of balsamic vinegar to the frying pan and reduce it to a thick sauce (you can even add the yoghurt and mustard to this sauce). Pour this over the steak when you serve it.
