medium rare please

hmm i'm thinkg garlic mayo instead of tzatiki now
Well done steak is a crime Cazzzzzzzz
That sounds lovely redhelen :c)
I've made lentil soup for tonight as no idea what time the old man will be home.

Dumplings
5oz beef suet

5oz self-raising flour, sifted, plus extra for dusting

salt and freshly ground black pepper

2tsp dried italian herbs ( but any that you prefer)

water to bind

Place the suet in a clean bowl and add the flour. Using your hands, mix the suet and flour well, then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and herbs.
Make a well in the centre of the flour and suet mixture and add water a bit at a time. Mix with a knife until you get a firm dough that comes away cleanly from the sides of the bowl.Turn the dough out onto a clean board and sprinkle over some flour. Roll the dough out into a sausage shape, then form into six golf ball-sized dumplings (they'll double in size when cooking). Carefully drop the dumplings into the stew

I slow cook my beef in red wine in the oven on gas mark 2 ( I use stewing beef or brisket), then turn it up to gas mark 6 just before I put the dumplings in, then cook for about and hour. Uncover the casserole about 20 minutes before serving so that the dumplings brown on the top
then its a tasty crime..
Glad I'm not alone in my enjoyment of rare meat!

I do think though, that if there was a way to get nice crispy fat, but rare meat, I would have found the perfect steak.

I do like rib-eye at the moment - I used to only really eat Rump, but Rib-eye has turned me around!

Biggest steak anyone has eaten?

Spare

Ed...you could always cook it....while it is resting cut the fat off and put it back in a hot pan. I like fat.

Biggest steak...I'm a light weight. About 5oz.
about 10oz didn;t have anythign else though just steak on a plate
-- answer removed --
I feel cutting the fat off and cooking it separate is cheating somehow!
That's how I crisp my fat up as well redhelen.... Anyone been watching Britains best dish this year?
-- answer removed --
It does helen, the same goes for belly pork. I crisp it up before I put it in the oven to slow cook....I love belly pork.
-- answer removed --
That sounds nice helen....care to give me a bit more detail about the recipe, I might cook it tomorrow
