CHEF FLOWER'S HOW DO I MAKE GRILL MARKS ON A STEAK?

Steps:

• Remove beef from the fridge for about 10 minutes or bring it to room temperature.
• Spray olive oil cooking spray all over the pan and then heat pan until its hot.
• Season with salt and pepper to your liking and add beef to the pan. Cook one side of the beef until red juices appear, spray olive oil on the raw side and turn beef. Cook other side to your liking. Only turn beef once!
• Serve the beef straight from the pan with the salad or vegetables.
• Enjoy.
• Note: To get the kriss-cross effect on the steak, lift steak and move it the opposite way allow to cook a further few minutes, then turn the steak the raw side, remember only turn beef once but moving it twice on the same side is OK if you want the kriss-cross effect.
