Steak Frites Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Fries

   Start by preparing the potatoes for the fries. Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips.

2. 2

   Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps to achieve a crispier texture.

3. 3

   Fry the Potatoes

   Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy pot to 350°F (175°C).

4. 4

   Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with paper towels. Carefully add the fries to the hot oil in batches, being cautious to avoid splattering.

5. 5

   Fry the potatoes for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Season with salt to taste.

6. 6

   Cook the Steak

   While the fries are cooking, season the NY strip steak generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

7. 7

   Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.

8. 8

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

9. 9

   Prepare the Worcestershire Molasses Sauce

   In a small bowl, mix together the Worcestershire sauce and molasses until well combined.

10. 10

    Plate and Serve

    Slice the rested steak against the grain and arrange it on a plate alongside a generous serving of fries.

11. 11

    Drizzle the Worcestershire molasses sauce over the steak and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
