  • Serves

    1

  1. 1 Cape Grim Reserve Scotch Fillet Steak
  2. 1 Tablespoon Cape Grim Beef Tallow (solid or melted)
  3. Sea salt
  4. Cracked black pepper
  1. Green salad
  2. Tallow Roasted Potatoes
  1. 1 Remove the steak from the fridge 20-30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature.
  2. 2 Season generously with sea salt and cracked black pepper.
  3. 3 Heat a cast iron pan over high heat until very hot. Add the tallow and allow it to melt and begin to shimmer.
  4. 4 Place the steak into the pan and cook for approximately 3 minutes on each side for medium rare, depending on thickness.
  5. 5 Remove from the pan and rest on a plate for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
  6. 6 If using leftover roasted potatoes, add them to the same pan to reheat and crisp up in the remaining tallow.
  7. 7 Slice the steak and serve with a fresh green salad and tallow roasted potatoes.
  1. 1 For best results, use a heavy-based pan such as cast iron to achieve a proper sear.
  2. 2 Avoid moving the steak too much while cooking to develop a deep crust.
  3. 3 Resting the steak is essential for a juicy result.
  1. 1 Serve simply with salad and potatoes or elevate with a classic peppercorn sauce or herb butter. Also pairs well sliced over a fresh salad or grain bowl.
