Drescription

The key to juicy, tender steak is to air fry straight from the fridge, rather than allowing the meat to come to room temperature. Perfect with salad and new potatoes.

Ingredients

  • 2 beef sirloin or rump steaks (225g/8oz each), fridge cold
  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
  • salad or vegetables
  • freshly boiled new potatoes or baked potatoes

Directions

  1. Place the air fryer crisper plate (grill pan/tray) inside your air fryer drawer (basket). Preheat at 200C for 3 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, place the steaks in a bowl and toss with the olive oil. Put onto a plate or board and sprinkle with ½–2 tsp black pepper and a little salt on each side. If you love a peppered steak, go for the full amount of pepper; for something milder, season more lightly.
  3. As soon as the air fryer is hot, add the steaks, leaving a little room around the sides and between them for the hot air to circulate. Cook for 4 minutes, then turn the steaks using tongs or a couple of forks and cook for a further 4 minutes for medium-rare. For well-done steak, increase the cooking time by around 1 minute per side.
  4. Transfer the steaks to two warmed plates. Carefully remove the crisper plate and pour any cooking juices over the steak (not all steaks will release juices or fat, so don’t worry if you don’t have any at the base of your drawer). Serve with salad or vegetables, and boiled new potatoes or baked potatoes.
