Ingredients

4 Sirloin steaks

a little Olive oil

Freshly ground black pepper

Aioli

3 cloves Garlic, peeled

1 tsp Sea salt flakes

2 Egg yolks

1½ cups Extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp Lemon juice

a little Hot water

Radicchio salad

1 Radicchio lettuce

1 small Fennel bulb, thinly sliced

Oil and vinegar

few flakes Parmesan

Brush each sirloin steak lightly with oil. Season each with ground pepper. Preheat the char-grill pan to hot before adding the meat.
Cook steaks on one side until the first sign of moisture appears on the top. Turn and cook further until done to your preference. Turn once only.
Remove steaks from heat, loosely cover with foil and rest for two minutes before serving.
Serve steaks with aioli and salad.
To make aioli: in a food processor process garlic, salt and egg yolks until smooth. Measure the 1½ cups olive oil in a jug. With the motor running begin to add the oil a few drops at a time. As the mixture starts to thicken you can add the oil in a thin stream. Add the lemon juice and a little hot water to make the aioli as thin as you like.
To make radicchio salad: wash the radicchio and separate the leaves, place in a salad bowl. Add the fennel, drizzle with a little oil and vinegar, add flaked parmesan.
