Method
• Brush the steaks with a little of the oil and lightly season.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. When the pan is very hot, add the steaks and cook for 2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or a further minute for medium and so on.
• Remove the steaks to a plate and keep warm while you make the sauce.
• Add wine and beef stock to the pan and reduce by half. Whisk in mustard, cream, pepper and a little salt. Reduce the temperature and simmer for 2 - 3 minutes until thick.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a separate frying pan and cook the onion until soft. Add mushrooms and cook until golden. Stir in garlic and spinach for a few minutes until the spinach wilts.
• Arrange spinach and mushrooms onto warm plates with the steaks. Drizzle with peppercorn sauce before serving.
