Steak

Onions

Natural Cut Fries

Method

Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps them cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the steaks with olive oil and generously season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.

Onions

  1. 4

    Slice the Onions

    Peel and slice the yellow onions into thin rings.

  2. 5

    Cook the Onions

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced onions and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized.

  3. 6

    Add Balsamic and Sugar

    Stir in the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes until the mixture is well combined and slightly thickened.

Natural Cut Fries

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thick strips to resemble natural cut fries.

  2. 8

    Soak the Potatoes

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

  3. 9

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy pot to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the soaked potatoes in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 10

    Season the Fries

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