Steak Frites Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Fries

   Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips. Rinse in cold water to remove excess starch.

2. 2

   Soak the Fries

   Soak the cut potatoes in water for at least 30 minutes. This helps achieve a crispier texture.

3. 3

   Preheat the Oil

   In a large pot or deep fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).

4. 4

   Fry the Potatoes

   Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

5. 5

   Cook the Steak

   Season the hanger steak with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest.

6. 6

   Make the Herbed Butter

   In a bowl, mix the softened butter with parsley, chives, thyme, and minced garlic. Adjust seasoning to taste.

7. 7

   Slice and Serve

   Slice the rested steak against the grain. Serve with fries and a generous dollop of herbed Maître d’butter on top.
