Method

Lay the steaks on a large flat dish. Melt half the butter and pour it over the steaks, turning them so that both sides are coated. Mix together half the hard-boiled eggs and parsley and all the onions, ginger, turmeric, and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle half this mixture thickly over the steaks and press it on to them. Turn the steaks over and repeat with the remaining mixture.
