How does a perfectly barbecued scotch with fresh summer herbs topped with a zesty homemade labneh sound? Pretty great, right? This lighter dish is perfect for a hot summer's day, or complete the meal with new potatoes or toasted sourdough and a crunchy green salad.

Ingredients
Beef
2 x 350g Quality Mark beef scotch fillets
Choose good-sized thick scotch fillet steaks (we used steaks that weighed 320-350g each). If scotch fillets steaks are thinner, cook for a little less time.
A dash of olive oil
Labneh
400g yoghurt
For the best results, use full fat yoghurt for the labneh. The whey that gathers in the bowl after draining can be used as the liquid in bread recipes.
1 crushed garlic clove
1 tbsp chopped dill leaves
1 lemon zest
To serve
A small handful of chopped parsley
2 tbsp chervil
1 lemon
4 tbsp olive oil
6-8 radish
2 handfuls watercress
