Ingredients
Zutaten:
Steak:
4 rump steak
2 tsp Taylor & Colledge Vanilla Bean Extract
100 g bacon
1 shallot
1 garlic clove
200 ml double cream (30% fat)
100 ml water
1 pinch of salt
1 pinch of pepper
Side:
500 g asparagus
Instructions
Side
Step 1: Prepare the asparagus by washing and trimming the ends.
Step 2: Steam or boil them until they are tender but still crisp. Set aside.
Sauce
Step 3: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and chop into small pieces. Reserve a tablespoon of the bacon fat in the skillet.
Step 4: Finely dice the shallot and garlic and fry them into the skillet with the bacon fat. Add Taylor & Colledge Vanilla Bean Extract. Stir in cream and water, combining well to create a rich sauce. Allow it to simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 5: Cook the rump steaks in a separate pan, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes for medium-rare or until desired doneness is reached.
Serving
Step 6: Add the chopped bacon back into the vanilla sauce, mix well, and then pour over the steaks.
Step 7: Serve the steaks immediately with the prepared asparagus on the side.
