Using what I had bought from Borough Market and as a feeble attempt to cut down on my expenses, I unexpectedly cooked myself the best meal of the week!
The salad was inspired by what Leons served me at Keen M's flat (one of those days...) last week and the steak - what can I say? All you need is a good piece of meat and a decent griddle pan.
It's so good I'm sharing the recipe with you:
Ingredients:
- Good rump steak - the best your money can buy
- Spinach salad leaves
- Ripe tomatoes, preferably roma
- Serrano ham - tiny shavings. Its expensive
- Half a clove of raw garlic - for the salad; just a tiny grate
- Extra virgin olive oil - dress salad
- Balsamic vinegar - dress salad. Again I am talking Modena Balsamic Vinegar
- Seasoning - lots on the steak, to taste for the salad
Griddle well-seasoned steak to preferred doneness (I go for medium rare) and leave to rest for 15 minutes (this is imperative and really helps bring our the best in your steak. BE PATIENT!). Assemble salad. Eat.
Contraindicated to share with anyone else - best for times of selfishness.
