Ingredients

  • 150g butter, very soft
  • 25g fresh flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
  • 20g fresh tarragon leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp pink peppercorns
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 Waitrose 1 Hereford Beef 30 Day Dry Aged Côte de Boeuf, about 850g

Method

  1. Put the butter in a bowl with the herbs, mustard, peppercorns and garlic, mash with a fork until incorporated. Scrape onto baking parchment, roll into a cylinder and place in the fridge overnight.

  2. Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6 and heat a griddle pan until hot. Sear the beef for 2 minutes on both sides then transfer to a tray. Top the beef with 2 discs of butter then cook in the oven for 16 minutes for rare, 20 minutes for medium. Place 2 more discs of butter on the top of the beef for the last 5 minutes of cooking.

  3. Remove from the oven, top with extra butter (optional), season and leave to rest for at least 10 minutes. Slice thickly and serve with chips.
