  • About

Steak Diane is one of those preparations from a largely bygone restaurant era where waiters used to cook simple dishes by the table, with much stylish flambé work.

Ingredients

  • 1 rump steak, about 250 g/ 8 oz
  • salt and pepper

Method

Take the rump steak and batter it out with a cutlet bat or rolling pin to a uniform thickness of about 5 mm / ¼ inch. Season well.

Heat a heavy frying pan until it is smoking hot. Throw in 30 g/ 1 oz</
