Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Heat a heavy based pan on high.

2. 2

   Brush oil onto both sides of steak.

3. 3

   To seal, cook steak 2-3 minutes each side. Turn when juices appear on uncooked side.

4. 4

   Note: Steak thickness determines cooking time. As a guide: Rare remove after sealing; reduce heat for medium and cook and extra 2-3 minutes each side; Well done, 4-6 minutes each side.

5. 5

   Test steak by pressing with tongs. Rare feels string. Medium has some resistance. Well done feels quite firm.

6. 6

   Remove from heat, rest while making sauce. Add onion, mushrooms to any pan juices. Cook 1 minute. Add worcestershire sauce and stock.

7. 7

   Bring to a boil, stirring constantly until slightly thickened. Add cornstarch in a little water to this mixture if it doesn't become thick enough.

8. 8

   Add parsley and any juices from rested steak.
