Garlic sirloin steak. 3 minutes on each side. A little just slightly overcooked from my preferred medium rare.
I have gone a long way from eating only well-done steaks. What a waste of good beef.
Was quite pleasantly surprised by my own cooking. Marinated the steak the night before with oil, sesame oil, pepper, salt, garlic. Made the pan very hot first, then seared the sides of the meat - sealing the juices - and turned down the heat of the fire before grilling the steak on both sides.
And oh boy, what a delicious (and cheap) beef steak. Juicy all by itself. Great meaty flavour highlighted by the sweet tartness of the garlic. Surprisingly, the garlic not very burnt and bitter.
Must have another go at it again next month when I am more free. Go for a thicker slice of steak perhaps. Or more daring seasoning? Hm... Drool...
