Blistered Steak with basil pesto

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, garlic, yellow onion so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the leeks in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the steak and let it blistered, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the garlic along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the coconut milk, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a grating of hard cheese right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
