Directions

Prepare the Steak

1. Pat the steak very dry with paper towels. Season generously on all sides with salt and pepper.
2. Heat your frying pan to high heat. Sear the steak for four minutes without moving it to develop a deep, caramelized crust.
3. Flip the steak. Immediately add the margarine, garlic cloves, soy sauce, and a sprig of fresh rosemary.
4. As the margarine melts, spoon it repeatedly over the steak for the final four minutes. Remove the steak and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Prepare the Mushroom Velouté

1. Sauté one large sliced white onion and mushrooms until deeply browned and caramelized.
2. Dissolve the cornstarch in almond milk, then add it to the mushrooms, along with the remaining ingredients.
3. Allow to simmer for 10 more minutes. Blend the mixture until completely smooth.

Prepare the Garnish

1. In a hot pan with a little oil, fry sliced mushrooms over high heat. Let them become golden and crispy.
2. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:
Yom tov tip: Before serving, gently rewarm the steak in a bit of chicken soup to keep them moist and savory, then slice it.
