Buy from proper butchers/farm shop (not supermarket)
Warm to room temp before cooking (not straight from the fridge)
Hot pan, little bit of oil, 3 minutes one side, turn over, 3 minutes other. Thats for a thick steak medium rare. Adjust to suit, but no more unless its really thick - you don't want ti ruin it!

Thick based pan, as hot as you can get it, smoking preferably, 2-3min each side. Buy quality meat from a butcher hung for a minimum of 21 days, you really want some marbeled fat in it to...

Talking about Sirloin but same applies

Saw this article in the Indy the other day...

Indy- How to cook the perfect steak!

Edited to add, they mostly think Fillet is rubbish and the best flavour comes from Ribeye, T-Bone or Rump...
