Salt-Roasted Porterhouse

This salt-roasted porterhouse steak is a magnificent centrepiece that uses a traditional roasting technique to lock in moisture and depth of flavour. By encasing the beef in a fragrant crust of coarse salt, toasted peppercorns, and aromatic seeds, the meat steams gently in its own juices while absorbing the subtle heat of the spices. This method ensures an incredibly tender result, making it a sophisticated choice for those looking for a high-protein, diabetes-friendly main course that feels truly indulgent.

Preparing the steak with a bespoke spice rub of fennel and rosemary provides a savoury complexity that pairs beautifully with simple side dishes. Serve this impressive cut alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed seasonal greens to keep the meal light and balanced. Because the salt crust is removed before serving, you are left with perfectly seasoned beef that is succulent, pink, and orignally flavoured without being overly salty.
