Ingredients

  • 1 pack of Silver Fern Farms Beef Rib-Eye Steak 
  • 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp za’atar spice mix or oregano
  • 1oz dried porcini mushrooms
  • 1 shallot, finely diced
  • 2 large brown mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ cup marsala, sherry or aperol
  • ½ cup sour cream, plus extra to serve
  • Chives, chopped, to garnish

Method

Step 1

Remove Silver Fern Farms Beef Rib-Eye Steak from packaging and rub with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Rub the za’atar or oregano over the meat, covering all sides. Allow the meat to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, soak porcini mushrooms for 10 minutes in hot water. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add remaining oil and fry shallot until tender. Drain porcini, discarding liquid, and chop. Add all the mushrooms, reduce to a low heat and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in paprika and cinnamon and season with sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper. Pour in fortified wine and allow to reduce for 5 minutes. Stir in sour cream.

Step 3

Meanwhile, heat a skillet, frying pan or grill plate over a medium to high heat. Grill the Silver Fern Farms Beef Rib-Eye Steak for 3 minutes one side. Turn and grill for a further 2-3 minutes, for medium-rare. Leave to rest, covered, for 5 minutes.

Step 4

For a shared dish, spread the mushroom sauce on a warm plate. Slice the steak across the grain and arrange on mushroom sauce. Dollop with extra sour cream and garnish with chives.
