Cut two nice-sized steaks in half lengthwise and dip in seasoned flour, to which should be added a dusting of cayenne pepper. Lay them in a well-buttered flat fire-proof dish. Mix two tablespoonfuls of thick cream with a teaspoonful of anchovy essence. Add pinches of salt and pepper and a tablespoonful of dry sherry. Pour the mixture over the steaks and bake in a moderate oven about twenty-five
