Instructions

    Steak

  1. Take your steaks out of the fridge and bring them to room temperature.
  2. Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat depending on how you like your steak cooked. Add the butter (or preferably the ghee as it had a higher smoke point). Place the steaks in the frying pan and fry to your liking: rare, medium, or well done. Remove the meat from the pan, cover, and let set aside to rest while you prepare the sauce.
  4. Mushroom sauce

  5. Lower the heat and add more butter (if necessary) to the same frying pan. Fry the garlic and mushroom slices until golden. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Turn the heat down and add the cream cheese, stirring to avoid any lumps.
  7. Add the cream and stir until heated through. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if necessary.
  8. Serving

  9. Serve the steaks with the creamy mushroom sauce and salad.

Tip

Instead of using butter or ghee you could also cut off some fat from the steaks and use that to cook your meat.

    I really wish these recipes were not so US centric in regards to measurements. The metric conversions often only provide a ML measurement for foods that could only be weighed. And the US measurements are often in cups/tbsp etc, which the metric ones usually are not. Much easier to use a cup measurement than having to weigh everything!

    We loved this! It was fantastic! Next time I'll use twice as many mushrooms, though. Thank you!
