How to Cook a Pork Steak

For 2cm thick steaks use our 6-2-2 method:

1. Simply take a 2cm pork steak (try the sirloin, scotch fillet, porterhouse or medallion).
2. Preheat a pan, griddle pan or BBQ plate just like you would for any other steak
3. Cook it on one side without turning for 6 minutes.
4. Turn it over once and allow it to cook for 2 more minutes. This method will cook the steak to just white.  If you prefer a little bit of pink just reduce the cooking time. If your steak is thicker than 2cm, adjust the cooking time on the second side.
5. Take the steak straight out of the pan without flipping over and place on a plate to rest for two minutes. That allows the juices to settle and it will be lovely and tender.
6. That’s how simple it is: 6 minutes on one side, 2 minutes on the other and 2 minutes to rest = the 10 minute pork steak!
