- 15-30ml/1-2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small garlic clove, peeled and finely sliced
- Small handful fresh sage leaves

Method
- Cut 2 slices of rustic country bread, horizontally and lightly grill for 1-2 minutes on each side. Spread with fruit chutney of your choice.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a pan and fry the garlic and a small handful of sage leaves (reserving a few leaves for garnish) for 1 minute.
- Season the steaks and cook according to preference. Arrange the steaks onto the bread slices. Place the Brie slices onto the steaks.
