Tayla,

Any fresh white roll will be delicious! With the ‘fry quickly’ it depends how thick your steaks are - four minutes on one side and three on the other if they are very thin. And yes, red wine makes a good substitute for the sherry.

I went to some of my local bakeries and they did not have any Portuguese rolls, what could I use as a good substitute (soemthing that is more common) ?
Oh and you say “When the pan is very hot, add the meat and fry quickly, turning once.” Around how long is ‘fry quickly’ ? Thanks

Yes, I think Sarah and I usually go halves in one!

Any hints on where to procure Portuguese bread in Melbourne?
