Some might say there's no need to mess with a perfectly good steak. But for UK's meat maestro Richard Turner, executive chef of popular British steakhouse Hawksmoor, getting saucy with your meat can be a delicious affair.
Steak sauces at Hawksmoor range from béarnaise and anchovy hollandaise to bone marrow gravy, but a good pat of the luscious beef butter served with sourdough bread at the restaurant is also a tasty option to melt over your steak. Even better, it's easy to whip up at home too.
Here, we get Turner to share how to churn up this spread.
