Basically a steak is cooked in the oven first and then seared briefly in a very hot cast iron pan. Hmm… quite interesting, so I decided to give it a go.
This is a nice piece of sirloin steak that I purchased from Feast Market. I placed it in my air fryer and cooked in at 200C for 3 minutes on each side. Yes, I flipped the steak after 3 minutes and cooked the other side for another 3 minutes.
It is therefore, partially cooked.
Then give it a good sear in a very hot cast iron pan for one minute per side.
Let rest for 5 minutes and then slice.
Ooohhhh…it turned out medium rare, moist and succulent. So good.
I guess the advantage of this method is that the steak gets cooked all around and you don’t have to sort of do some stunt to cook the sides of the steak using the pan.
