Steak and Fries

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fries

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into thin fries and soak them in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Bake the Fries

    Toss the dried fries in a bowl with truffle oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Season the hanger steak with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add butter and shallots, cooking until softened. Carefully add cognac and ignite it to burn off the alcohol. Stir in beef broth and heavy cream. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Slice the rested steak against the grain. Plate with truffle fries and drizzle with the au poivre sauce.
