Steak

 

A good piece of steak needs only salt & pepper.

Before cooking, leave the chilled (not frozen) steak in room temperature for 30 mins. Season it with salt & freshly grounded black pepper.

I used a cast iron pan.

Heat up the pan.

Rub the sides (fats) of the steak on the pan. (Or I will slice them & render them on the pan.)

Then.... 

For a one inch thick steak, 4 mins on each side.

For a 1.5 cm thick steak, 1 min 30 sec on each side.

I like them medium.

You can also add some butter, garlic, & rosemary in the midst of cooking.

Rest for 10 mins before serving.
