Steak

Mashed Potatoes

Garlic-Pepper Blonde Gravy

Side Item (Optional)

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Tenderize the beef round steak with a meat mallet until it's about 1/2 inch thick. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Bread the Steak

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with flour again. Dredge the steak in flour, dip in the egg mixture, and then coat with flour again.

  3. 3

    Fry the Steak

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.

Mashed Potatoes Preparation

  1. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into quarters. Boil in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 5

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy. Keep warm.

Gravy Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Roux

    In the same skillet used for frying the steak, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for about 2 minutes until golden.

  2. 7

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Slowly whisk in the beef broth, garlic powder, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 3-5 minutes.

Side Item Preparation

  1. 8

    Prepare the Side

    If using green beans, steam or boil them until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serving

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the country fried steak with a generous portion of mashed potatoes, topped with garlic-pepper gravy, and your choice of side item.
