• Add garlic and both creams, mix a little water with cornflour, add to sauce stir until mixture boils and thickens, turn down heat.
• Add pepper, tarragon and juice stir to combine, keep sauce warm on a low heat, on the stove, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin forming over the top.
• Steaks.
• Season steaks on both sides with salt and pepper, BBQ, Grill or pan fry until browned and cooked as desired.
• I like mine medium rare so when I have thick steaks like these, I sear each side for 2 minutes and then place in the oven for 15 minutes at 180°C.
• To Serve: Top each steak with some onion, pour sauce over and serve with whatever veg and starch you want. I served mine with creamed spinach.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees celsius.
• Heat oil in a pan, add steaks and sear 2 minutes each side, cook for a further 4-5 Min's a side.
• Remove to an oven proof dish and cook for a further 15-20 Min's for Medium rare-Medium. Please adjust cooking times for thinner steaks as I said above mine were about 300g a piece and this cooking time gave us a tender steaks, nice and pink in the middle.
• Sauce.
• Melt butter in a pan, add mushrooms, cook, until almost tender, add garlic and cook for a further 2 Min's, stirring, so garlic does not burn.
• Add creme fraiche, cream and stock, bring to the boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, mix a little water with cornflour, add to sauce and stir until mixture thickens.
• Stir in onions and parsley, serve sauce over steak.

Steps:

• Melt a knob of butter in a large frying pan, then add the steaks and sear quickly on both sides until brown.
• Next, add the shallot and cook the steak to your liking, then remove and allow to rest.
• Meanwhile, pour in the brandy and light it with a match, then cook until the flames die out. Spoon in the Roddas Cornish clotted cream and mustard, and stir well.
• Finally, season with sea salt and black pepper and leave to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
