What ever this is
Get the oil in the pan smoking hot. Put the steak in, keep the heat on high and turn every 15 seconds for 2 minutes. Rest for 5 minutes. Absolutely perfect.

Save some money and just fry a slice of bread if you're gonna soak it in sauce!

That's the rare end of a medium rare on a Sirloin.
Works well, but you need to start off with a pretty decent cut of meat to make it not chewy/lacking taste.

You can't have a steak without Tabasco sauce (imo). I add a fair bit because I like the kick.

Medium rare Fillet for sure if it's thick enough.
Char grilled on the outside, medium rare for 1cm in and rare in the middle.
Perfect. Fucked If I can cook it like that though

30 seconds either side, done. If it's anything more than lukewarm in the middle I've cooked it too long

Medium rare for me, nice and pink but not too bloody. If you cook it yourself its very important to rest it. I never used to bother till I saw heston's guide to steaks, worth a watch. He does a test on resukts of resting it against not.

Well done, I like my food cooked thanks.
Anyone suggesting it ruins the meat either can't cook or is going to the wrong places.

One other thing...
When eating a rare steak with the missus/date in a fancy restaurant, start eating the steak from your side and eat outwards.
That way the flesh/blood stays screened from them by the steak itself.
For some strange reason some women dont appreciate seeing a slab of meat with blood/juice coming out of it whilst they pick at their Risotto.
No idea why

Its not blood. All the blood is drained when the cow is slaughtered. Its a protein called myoglobin which mixes with water in the muscle tissue, turning the water a red colour

Rare!
Cook it less and it's less tender and tasteful.
