Cook fillet like they do in most top class restaurants, using the Pan to Oven method. Depending on how you want it cooked, the timings will vary (And are off the top of my head), however....
This is for Medium Rare (More rare than medium)
Whack your Hob on Full and use a heavy based pan for best results. Add small amount of oil and wait for it to start smoking. Sear the steak for about 1 or 2 minutes on either side.
Remove the pan from the hob and place into a pre-heated oven on around 200 for about 8 minutes. Ensure that the steaks do not touch each other. Remove from oven and wrap in tin-foil for a further 10 minutes to allow the juices to distribute around the steak.
