Steak

Method

Preparing the Fries

  1. 1

    Cutting the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soaking the Potatoes

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 3

    Drying the Potatoes

    After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to ensure they fry properly.

  4. 4

    Frying the Potatoes

    In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Add the dried potato sticks in batches and fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with salt.

Cooking the Steak

  1. 5

    Seasoning the Steak

    Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then rub both sides with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Cooking the Steak

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

  3. 7

    Preparing Garlic Butter

    While the steak is cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.

  4. 8

    Resting the Steak

    Once cooked, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Serving

  1. 9

    Plating the Dish

    Slice the rested steak against the grain and plate it alongside a generous portion of fries. Drizzle the garlic butter over the steak and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
