5 minutes - is it a lot or a little? How long does it take to fry a steak
To begin with, we consider it necessary to remind you that a beefsteak is nothing more than a dish of fried beef.
If you want it to be tasty, juicy, aromatic and therefore appetizing, you can’t do without knowledge of the cooking time for beefsteak.
The beginning of cooking a steak is to heat the frying pan and the oil to a high temperature. Only in such conditions will a crust form, which will keep all the juices inside.
And now directly about the cooking time of the meat dish. Unfortunately, there are simply no universal values - the exact frying time depends on the thickness of the tenderloin.
However, you can use a simple formula, allocating 2-3 minutes for each side (for thin pieces of meat).
If you have thicker pieces, you will need 4-5 minutes on each side.
In addition, the number of minutes depends on the desired degree of doneness.
So, cooking a rare steak, the thickness of which is 1.5 cm, takes 2-3 minutes, medium rare takes 4-5 minutes, and, finally, for a well-done steak you will need 6-7 minutes on each side.
