Cooking the perfect rib-eye can be stressful, and nobody wants to ruin an expensive steak. Lucky for you, we have found the secret recipe for creating the perfect rib-eye.
Ingredients:
- Olive oil
- 4 boneless rib-eye steaks (2.5cm thick)
- Sea salt
- Cracked black pepper
- 4 sprigs thyme
- Butter
- 4 sweet potatoes, peeled
- 1 sprig flat leaf parsley
- 1 sprig chervil
- 1 sprig tarragon
- 2 shallots, sliced
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 gherkins
- 8 capers
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 sprinkle of white wine vinegar
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
- Cut potatoes into small slices (2.5 cm long, 0.5 cm wide). Throw in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and cayenne pepper. Add more or less to your liking. Put potato slices on greaseproof paper and place in oven for 20 minutes or until they start to brown. Turn occasionally to get soft and fully cooked fries.
- Herb butter: Dice all other ingredients and blend with 125 g of butter (at room temperature). Place onto greaseproof paper and pop in the freezer.
- Start to heat the olive oil in a pan until it starts to smoke. Place rib-eyes in the pan, rotating occasionally.
- Turn the stove to low. Add 1 sprig of thyme and 2 tablespoons of butter. Flip continuously for 5 minutes on medium heat.
- Serve with fries and add herb butter to the top of the steaks.
