Instructions
To cook the steaks
- Heat the tablespoon of olive oil over a medium-high heat in a frying pan. Add the steaks and fry until they're done to your liking. As a guide, 2 minutes on one side and 4 minutes on the other side will give you a medium done steak. This will depend on the thickness of the steak and the heat setting.1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 rump steaks, salt to taste
- Season the steaks to taste. Cover with foil to keep them warm and set aside to rest.
