Steak Frites Cones Recipes

A CLASSIC STEAK FRITES RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine the butter, lemon juice, shallot, garlic, chives, mustard, and Worcestershire in a mixing bowl. Stir to thoroughly combine. Reserve on the countertop. Preheat a grill, grill pan, or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the steak all over with salt and plenty of black pepper. Cook the steaks, turning frequently, for about 8 minutes total (depending on the thickness), until well browned on both sides and firm but still easily yielding to the touch. Rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. Top each steak with one-fourth of the butter, and serve with the hot fries from our Crispy Oven-Baked Fries recipe.

STEAK FRITES WITH BéARNAISE-ISH

Steps:

• Set the steak out at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a cooling rack or paper towel and set aside.
• Place the potatoes into a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot. Cover the potatoes with about 1 centimeter (1/2 inch) of canola oil, place a lid on the pot and bring to a boil over high heat; this should take about 5 minutes. When boiling, remove the lid and cook, without stirring, for 10 minutes.
• Carefully stir the fries, gently scraping the bottom of the pot to loosen any that are stuck and cook for another 10 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Remove the fries from the oil and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Season immediately with salt and transfer to the oven to keep warm.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the steak dry with paper towel. Rub with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add to the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Add the butter into the pan along with one clove of unpeeled garlic and 2 sprigs of tarragon. Carefully tilt the pan slightly and spoon the butter over the steak for 1 to 2 minutes for medium, or until the steak is cooked to your liking. Remove the steak from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel and mince the remaining garlic, finely chop the remaining 2 sprigs of tarragon and add to a bowl along with the mayonnaise and lemon juice, to taste.
• To serve, cut the steak into 1-centimeter (1/2-inch) thick slices and transfer to two plates along with the fries, a scattering of chives and a dollop of béarnaise-ish sauce. Season with a bit more salt and pepper.

STEAK FRITES

Steps:

• Heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat to 325 F degrees. Cut potatoes into thin slices lengthwise. Cut each slice into thin shoestring strips. Place cut potatoes on paper towels. Place 2 generous handfuls of potatoes at a time into hot oil, in 2 batches. Par cook the potatoes 2 minutes and transfer to a towel lined plate. Raise heat to medium high up to 375 degrees F. Allow oil to rise to a higher temperature, 3 to 5 minutes. Return potatoes to oil in 2 batches to crisp them, cooking them to a deep, golden brown color, another 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Remove potatoes from oil to clean towels to drain. Season with fine salt and serve.
• For steaks, heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add a little oil to the pan, 1 turn. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Place steaks in skillet and sear 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to medium and cook steaks 6 minutes longer for medium rare, 8 for medium to medium well. Remove steaks to a warm plate to rest. Add 2 tablespoons butter and the shallots to the pan. Cook shallots 2 or 3 minutes, add flour to the pan and cook a minute longer. Whisk wine into pan and lift pan drippings up. Add the last tablespoon of butter and remove the pan from the heat. Spoon wine and shallot sauce over the steaks and serve with hot, shoestring potatoes.

STEAK FRITES WITH HERB MUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Whisk the mustard and olive oil in a small bowl. Coat the steak with 2 tablespoons of the mustard mixture, then season with black pepper and set aside. Whisk the chives, tarragon and 2 tablespoons cold water into the remaining mustard mixture. Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick sticks; pat dry. Whisk the egg whites, paprika, cayenne and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; add the potatoes and toss. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Add the potatoes, letting the excess egg drip off; spread out and spray with cooking spray. Bake until golden brown, 25 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the steak: Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large cast-iron skillet. Heat the pan over high heat until very hot, then add the steak and place another heavy skillet on top to weigh it down. Sear until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Turn off the heat and let the steak rest in the pan, 5 to 8 more minutes for medium rare. Thinly slice against the grain and serve with the fries and herb mustard.

STEAK FRITE WITH SKIN-ON-FRIES AND ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a fryer to 360 degrees F.
• Combine balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon parsley. Add steak and marinate for at least 2 hours.
• Pan sear or grill marinated sirloin over high heat for 45 seconds on both sides and cut into 1/4-inch strips.
• Fry skin-on fries until very crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Toss fries and sirloin together with garlic butter, Parmesan, and remaining chopped parsley.
