2 x 20g truffles
bunch of fresh rocket
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
6 x 150g striploin steaks
knob of truffle butter
salt

Method:

1. Prepare the truffles by rinsing them quickly and lightly brushing off any dirt.
2. Toss the rocket leaves in the extra virgin olive oil.
3.Heat a griddle pan until it’s smoking hot. Brush the steaks with a little olive oil. Cook the steaks, two at a time, for 3 minutes on each side. Finish with a knob of truffle butter and a pinch of salt. Set the steaks aside to rest.

5. Place a bed of the dressed rocket on warmed plates. Top with slices of steak and freshly cut truffles.
