1.Heat a large frypan over high heat. Brush steaks with 2 tbs oil and add to pan. Cook for 3 minutes each side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate. Cut 20g butter into 4 slices and top each steak with 1 slice. Set aside, loosely covered with foil, for 5 minutes to rest.

2.Meanwhile, gently pat beans with paper towel to dry. In the same pan used to cook steak, melt remaining 1 tbs oil and 80g butter over high heat (only clean pan if it has burnt, otherwise leave uncleaned). Add beans and caperberries, and cook, stirring once every 2 minutes, for 6 minutes or until beans are golden. Add garlic and anchovies halfway through bean cooking time and stir through.

3.Divide steaks and bean mixture among bowls and scatter with tarragon to serve.
