Bitoque (803) À "portuguesa" Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel and cut the potatoes into thick fries. Place them in a bowl of cold water to soak while you prepare the rest of the meal.

2. 2

   Marinate the Beef

   Season the beef steaks with salt, black pepper, minced garlic, and a drizzle of olive oil. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Fry the Potatoes

   Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Drain the potatoes and fry them until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, seasoning with salt to taste.

4. 4

   Cook the Beef

   In the same pan, add another 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Cook the marinated beef steaks for about 3–4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Add bay leaves during cooking for flavor.

5. 5

   Prepare the Vegetables

   In a separate skillet, sauté sliced onion and red bell pepper in a bit of olive oil until soft and caramelized.

6. 6

   Fry the Eggs

   In a different pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

7. 7

   Assemble the Dish

   On each plate, serve a beef steak topped with sautéed vegetables, a fried egg, and a side of crispy fries. Drizzle with piri-piri sauce to taste.
