Method
-
step 1
Season the steaks well on both sides. Heat a heavy frying pan to medium/high heat and add a knob of butter. When the butter is foaming, sear the steaks for 2 minutes on each side for medium then lift out and keep warm under foil while you finish the sauce.
-
step 2
Add the shallots to the steak pan with another knob of butter and cook for 2 minutes until soft.
-
step 3
Add the crushed peppercorns and vinegar. Turn the heat up and boil until the liquid evaporates.
-
step 4
Add the stock and boil until reduced by half. Add the cream and simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring. Season with salt if it needs it.
-
step 5
Put the steaks on warm plates, spoon over the peppercorn sauce and serve with chips and watercress.
