Steps

40 min

1

Pat dry the steak with paper towels on both sides. Sprinkle salt and pepper on one side of the steaks.
2

In a frying pan, drizzle sunflower oil on high heat.
3

Pan fry the steak for 3-4 minutes on one side for medium-rare. 2 min for rare and longer if you like it well done.
4

Flip the steaks and sprinkle salt and pepper and fry for another 3 minutes. Take it off the pan and let it cool whilst you make the sauce.
5

In a separate saucepan, fry garlic and shallots on medium-high heat until aromatic, about 1 minute.
6

Add the cream in the saucepan and stir until it starts to boil.
7

Lower the heat. Add the salt, sugar, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and curry powder and stir.
8

Add the mushrooms (and asparagus) to the saucepan and let it simmer for 3 minutes until soft. Pour the sauce on top of the steaks.

Alternative method for cooking asparagus:
Heat up the oven to 190°C. In a baking tray, drizzle olive oil onto the asparagus. Sprinkle a pinch of salt, pepper, and cajun seasoning onto the asparagus and cook for 5-6 min until soft enough to pierce with a fork.
