Peppered Steaks With Mushroom Yorkshires
- 4 portabella mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 75 g plain flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 5 tablespoons skim milk
- 4 (100 g) sirloin steaks, fat removed
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons peppercorns, cracked
- 1 pinch fine sea salt
- 1 pinch fresh ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 220C/gas 7.
- Place a mushroom, stalk-side up, in each hole of a 4-hole non-stick Yorkshire pudding tin.
- Season with salt and pepper and drizzle a tiny spot of oil over each.
- Roast for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the flour in a bowl, make a well in the centre and beat in the egg, milk and two tablespoons of water to make a smooth batter.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Lift out the mushrooms from the tin, pour in the batter so it comes halfway up each mould, then carefully return each mushroom so it is surrounded by batter.
- Return to the oven for 20 minutes until risen and dark golden.
- Preheat a heavy griddle pan or non-stick frying pan.
- Season the steaks with salt and spread lightly with mustard.
- Sprinkle over the peppercorns, pressing them well into the steaks.
- When the Yorkshires are nearly ready, cook the steaks for 3 minutes or so on each side until nicely browned but still a little pink in the centre.
- Serve each steak and a Yorkshire pudding with mashed potatoes and gravy.
