Method

Heat a frying pan. Add the olive oil and garlic and fry gently to soften. Add the tomatoes, caster sugar and half the basil, season and fry for 5 minutes, until the tomatoes have softened down and begun to disintegrate.
Heat a griddle pan. Oil the steaks on both sides and season well. Fry for 2 to 4 minutes on each side – this will give you medium rare. Transfer to a plate and allow to rest for 5 minutes. While the steak is resting, reheat the sauce and just before serving, stir through the balsamic vinegar, the rest of the basil and any juices that have come out of the steaks. Serve the steaks with the sauce on the side, a green salad and new potatoes roasted in olive oil, if you like.
