Questions about Top sirloin filet
What is top sirloin filet, and how is it different from sirloin steak?
It is a lean, boneless steak cut from the sirloin, usually shaped as an individual portion. The word “filet” describes the cut’s form; it does not mean it comes from the tenderloin.
How do you cook top sirloin filet so it stays tender?
Pat it dry, season it, then sear in a very hot pan with a little oil for about 2–3 minutes per side for a steak roughly 2 cm thick. Rest it for 5 minutes before slicing across the grain; thicker steaks need longer, so use a meat thermometer to check the centre.
How should you choose top sirloin filet at the butcher’s?
Look for steaks of even thickness so they cook at the same rate, with a fine grain and a small amount of marbling. A little marbling helps keep this naturally lean cut juicy; trim only large pieces of surface fat after cooking.
How long does raw top sirloin filet keep in the fridge?
Keep it covered on the bottom shelf and cook it within 2–3 days of buying. Freeze it tightly wrapped if you will not use it in that time, then thaw it in the fridge rather than on the worktop.
What goes well with top sirloin filet?
Serve it with roast potatoes, chips or a green salad, and add peppercorn sauce, chimichurri or a squeeze of lemon. It also works well sliced over a salad or tucked into a steak sandwich.
Can you use top sirloin filet instead of tenderloin steak?
Yes, in most recipes, but top sirloin filet is firmer and less buttery than tenderloin. Sear it quickly and avoid cooking it for a long time, which can make the lean meat tough.
How many calories are in a top sirloin filet?
A typical 115 g filet contains 190 kcal and 35 g of protein. Its fat is mostly unsaturated, with 1.8 g of saturated fat.
Is top sirloin filet high in zinc?
Yes. A 100 g portion provides 8.6 mg of zinc, making it a particularly rich source of this mineral.
