Method

  1. 1

    Cut the beef fillet into four thick steaks and season well.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a frying pan until very hot and cook the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer to your liking, then set aside to rest.

  3. 3

    Add the shallots to the pan and cook for 3 minutes until softened.

  4. 4

    Pour in the beef stock and let it bubble for 1 minute, scraping up any browned bits.

  5. 5

    Stir in the double cream and crumble in the roquefort, simmering for 2-3 minutes until melted and slightly thickened.

  6. 6

    Serve the steaks with the roquefort sauce spooned over.
