  3. Rinse beef under cold water and pat dry. Heat oil in an ovenproof frypan over medium-high heat. Brown the beef for 2-3 minutes on all sides, then transfer to oven for 15 minutes for rare, or until cooked to your liking. Rest beef for 10 minutes. Slice and serve with chutney.

 

Tips

 Begin this recipe a day ahead.

 Always rest beef after cooking. This gives the meat juices a chance to redistribute, giving a more moist and tender result

The quality and ‘value’ of meat should not be measured by how heavy a feedlot can grow their beef. Rather, we look after our animals from when they are born to when they are sent to Greenham – we try to give them a quality of life all the way through – and that’s why we end up with a really good product.
