Steak with Lemongrass Peppercorn Sauce

This steak with lemongrass peppercorn sauce is a sophisticated twist on a classic bistro favourite. The sharp, citrusy notes of fresh lemongrass cut through the richness of the beef, while the coarsely cracked peppercorns provide a warming heat. Using a dry vermouth to deglaze the pan ensures every bit of savoury flavour from the seared steak is incorporated into the silky, aromatic sauce.

Perfect for an elegant weekend dinner, this dairy-free main course feels indulgent without being overly heavy. Serve the sliced sirloin with steamed green beans or sautéed kale to complement the bright flavours of the infusion. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a restaurant-quality meal at home that relies on high-quality ingredients and simple French-inspired techniques.
