    1 Heat a barbecue or chargrill pan to high. Brush the steak with half the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 2–3 minutes on each side for a medium-rare steak (or a little longer if you prefer). Set aside to rest and return to room temperature.

    2 Brush the peaches with the remaining oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, cut side down, for a few minutes, until lightly coloured.

    HFG tip

    MUSTARD DRESSING:

    1 Pour the vinegar into a blender. Add the garlic, Dijon mustard and honey and blend on medium speed. Slowly add the oil until combined, which will take about 2 minutes.

    2 Transfer to an airtight container and stir the seeded mustard through. Season with salt. The dressing will keep for up to 3 weeks in the fridge. Makes about 250ml (1 cup).
