Ingredients:
- Sirloin
- Garlic

- Fresh cream
- Black peppercorns
- Butter

Method:
- Make the marinade: In a large bowl add; the white wine, bay leaves, peri-peri sauce, garlic and peppercorns, then whisk to combine. Next, place the steaks in the marinade, cover the bowl with cling wrap and leave in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes (the longer you leave it, the better).
- Cook the steak: Heat butter in a pan over high heat. Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes, or until your preferred doneness. Remove the steaks from the heat and leave to rest.
- Pour the marinade into the pan with a splash of fresh cream and allow the sauce to reduce. Then, place the steaks back into the sauce and heat through.
- Assemble and serve: Butter the rolls and dip them in the remaining sauce. Place the steak onto the roll and top with a fried egg.
