Steak

Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub this mixture all over the ribeye steaks and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat your grill to high heat. Place the marinated steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on the thickness. During the last minute of grilling, add the fresh rosemary sprigs to infuse flavor.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Preparing the French Fries

  1. 4

    Cut the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Soak the potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Ensure there is enough oil to fully submerge the fries.

  3. 6

    Fry the Potatoes

    Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels. Carefully add the potatoes in batches to the hot oil and fry for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 7

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
