Steak and Fries
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Prepare the Fries
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into uniform fries, about 1/4 inch thick. Rinse them in cold water to remove excess starch and then pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Fry the Potatoes
In a large pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the fries in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt while still hot.
Cook the Steak
In a large skillet or grill pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness.
Make Finishing Butter
In a small bowl, combine softened butter with minced garlic and chopped fresh herbs. Mix until well combined.
Serve
Slice the steak against the grain and serve alongside the crispy fries. Enjoy!
