Steak

Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the sirloin steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and fresh rosemary on both sides.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat your grill to high heat. Place the seasoned steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Fries Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into 1/4-inch thick strips.

  2. 5

    Soak Potatoes

    Place the potato strips in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.

  3. 6

    Heat Oil

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 7

    Fry Potatoes

    Carefully add the dried potato strips to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 5-6 minutes for each batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 8

    Season Fries

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
