Mix cornflour with a little water and add, stir until mixture thickens add double cream and light cream. Stir and pour into heatproof jug to serve.
• For the steaks heat an oiled pan, once hot add steaks and sear a couple of minutes on each side. Then cook until desired doneness. I bought really thick steaks so I cooked them 20-25 minutes for medium rare. So less cooking time if they are thin. Once cooked remove from pan and allow to stand for 5 minutes before serving.
