Levantine Steak Melt

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: brioche buns, cheddar, mayonnaise and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the fennel bulb in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the steak and let it honey-glazed, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the black pepper and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Add the white wine and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with a spoonful of yogurt and a final crack of pepper.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
