FRIED BEEFSTEAK. When the means to broil are not at hand, the next best method is to heat the frying-pan very hot, put in the steak, let it remain a few moments, loosen with a knife and turn quickly several times; repeat this and when done transfer to a hot platter. Salt, pepper, and put over it bits of butter

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
