Steak & Frites

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Season the Black Angus NY Strip Steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Add the steak to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, add unsalted butter and blue cheese to the pan, spooning the melted butter over the steak.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

  4. 4

    Make the French Fries

    While the steak is resting, peel and cut the potatoes into thick strips. Rinse in cold water and pat dry.

  5. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

  6. 6

    Prepare Garlic Aioli

    In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the sliced steak with hand-cut fries on the side, garnished with blue cheese butter. Serve garlic aioli on the side for dipping. For truffle fries, drizzle truffle oil over the fries before serving.
