Method

Preparing the Wagyu Strip

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the Wagyu strip steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time to your preferred doneness.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Making the Knödel

  1. 4

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and let them cool slightly before peeling.

  2. 5

    Mash the Potatoes

    Mash the peeled potatoes until smooth. Allow to cool completely.

  3. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix the cooled mashed potatoes with flour, egg, and salt. Knead gently until a dough forms.

  4. 7

    Shape the Dumplings

    Divide the dough into equal portions and roll them into balls (about the size of a golf ball).

  5. 8

    Cook the Dumplings

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the dumplings and cook until they float to the surface, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

  6. 9

    Finish with Butter

    In a small pan, melt butter over low heat. Once melted, toss the cooked dumplings in the butter to coat.

Preparing the Vegetables

  1. 10

    Prepare the Green Beans

    Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them under cold water.

  2. 11

    Blanch the Green Beans

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch for about 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

  3. 12

    Sauté the Red Bell Pepper

    Slice the red bell pepper into strips. In the same skillet used for the steak, add a little more olive oil if needed, and sauté the red pepper until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
