Steak with Sticky Onions

Ingredients

Method

  • 8 baby brown onions or shallots, peeled and quartered
  • 2 x 175g sirloin steaks or similar
  • ½ tbsp crushed peppercorns
  • 25g butter
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 180ml red wine
  • 150ml strong beef stock
  • Simmer the onions in boiling water for 4 mins, then drain and set aside. Season the steaks with crushed peppercorns and some salt, then heat half the butter in a pan until sizzling. Cook the steaks for 3 mins on each side (for medium) or to your liking. Remove from the pan and leave to rest.
  • Add the remaining butter to the frying pan and toss in the onions. Sizzle until just browned, then pour in the balsamic vinegar and bubble for 3 mins more. Add the wine, boil until sticky, then stir in the stock and simmer to combine. Spoon the onions over the steaks, then serve with a big plate of rosemary fries.
