The Good Bit
- Place each of the steaks into the bag, one at a time and squash until the steak is about 6mm thick. Mix the mustard, garlic, half the basil, pepper and butter together then spread onto each of the steaks, roll the steaks up and secure with either the cocktail sticks or string.
- With a little oil in the frying pan cook the steaks until well browned all over, 6-8 minutes should do it. Remove and set aside (covered if you can) drop the onion into the pan and cook until soft then add in the brandy and bring to the boil, then stir in the cream, season with salt and pepper and add the caster sugar to taste then finally stir in the rest of the basil.
- Serve the rolled up steak (minus string or sticks) with the vegetables of your choice and drizzle over the sauce.
