Method

Heat vegetable oil in a deep heavy-based pan until a breadcrumb sizzles.

Plate watercress, top with sliced steak, mushrooms, and crisp shallots.

Whisk cider vinegar, rapeseed oil, and mustard to dress the watercress.

Sauté mushrooms in olive oil for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Season steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, then rest for 5 minutes.

Heat a griddle pan or barbecue to a high heat.

Deep-fry shallots for 3-4 minutes until golden-brown and drain on kitchen paper.

Coat shallot rings in flour, dip in milk, and dredge in flour again.

Season plain flour with salt and black pepper.
