I have never cooked a steak before and came across this recipe which looked pretty easy to make and decided to give it a shot.
**
The recipe's pretty idiot proof.
**
Ingredients:-
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups (375ml) beef/chicken stock
- 1kg frozen potato fries
- 2 tbsps peppercorn medley
- 4 beef fillet steaks (600g)
- 1/3 cup (80ml) thickened cream
**
1. Prepare the fries according to instructions
2. Meanwhile, place pepper and salt in shallow dish; press onto both sides of steaks.
3. Heat oil in a large frying pan; cook steaks until browned on both sides and cooked as desired.
4. Remove from pan; cover to keep warm
5. Add stock to pan; simmer, uncovered, until reduced by half. Stir in cream.
6. Serve steaks with sauce and chips. You can also steam some fresh vegetables like french beans and carrots like what I did.
**
See....not difficult right?
**
Just a note, I will suggest that you at least slice a few lines across your steaks. It cooks faster.
**
Have fun!!!!
