method
1. Trim excess fat from the steaks. Place some of the fat into a nonstick frying pan and cook over a medium heat to render it. Discard any solid fat.
2. Raise the heat to high and fry the steaks in the pan for 2 minutes each side. Reduce the heat and cook for up to 2 - 3 more minutes each side. Eight minutes time will give a well-done steak; reduce the Cooking time by half for rare meat. Remove the steak from the pan and keep warm in the oven.
3. Chop the shallots finely and add to the pan juices. Cook over a low heat, stirring until lightly coloured. Add the crushed peppercorns, mustard and brandy.
4. Stir in the yoghurt or cream and lemon juice; heat gently and then serve with new potatoes and a salad or crisp vegetables.
