4. 4

   Turn heat to low and stir in cheese, cayenne and a few grindings of pepper.

5. 5

   Stir occasionally until cheese melts, then taste and adjust seasoning.

6. 6

   Keep warm while you grill steaks.

7. 7

   Season steaks well with salt and pepper, then grill or broil about 3 to 4 minutes a side for medium-rare, longer or shorter according to your taste.

8. 8

   Serve steaks with 1 or 2 spoonfuls of sauce over each, garnished with parsley or chives if you like.
