To Fry Steak

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat a frying pan until very hot.

  2. Sprinkle the pan with coarse sea salt.

  3. Cut the fat of the steak in two or three places to prevent curling.

  4. Lay the steak in the pan and turn it often.

  5. Once cooked, remove the steak to a hot platter.

  6. Pour a little boiling water into the pan to create gravy with the juices.

  7. Serve the gravy over the steak.
