Sorry, still none the wiser.
I can never do steak what I would call 'right', it's always perfect on the outside and raw (not rare, raw) on the inside.

I've tried both hot-pan when putting in, and warming-up pan when putting in, and it's never right in my books.

Best way is to cook it sloooooowly and on a low heat
I've found.
About 10 minutes each side should do it for a medium rare steak (slightly pink inside).

Fuck that
Crank the heat up to maximum and do it for 60 seconds per side. I like my steaks bloody.

Rest the meat in a warm oven, about 100, for about 10ish mins after cooking
this lets the hot juices back into the center and stops it being raw.

Also, leave the meat out for a half hour or so
instead of cooking it straight from the fridge.

this indeed
I always make some kind of potato with my steaks, and the meat sits out while i get these prepared (and everything else washed)
