Fillet Steak Chips Quick Pepper Sauce Recipes

STEAK, CHIPS & QUICK PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put 1 tbsp oil in a small roasting tin and heat up in the oven. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 3 mins before draining and letting steam-dry for a few mins. Season, carefully toss in the hot oil and cook for 30-35 mins until crisp and golden.
• When the chips are nearly done, heat the rest of the oil in a frying pan. Season the steak with lots of freshly ground pepper and a little salt, then fry for 2-3 mins on each side, depending on how rare you like it. Rest for 5 mins while you make the sauce.
• Pour excess oil from the pan and add the vinegar. Bubble, then add the stock and boil until reduced by half. Stir through the cream, bubbling to thicken a little, then add as much extra pepper as you like. Serve with steak, chips and peas.

FILLET OF STEAK WITH A PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a saucepan mix red wine, brandy, red wine vinegar, garlic clove, beef stock, water and crushed pepper. Bring to boil then reduce heat to a simmer, simmer for about 10 minutes; you want to reduce slightly. Mix cornflour with a little water and add, stir until mixture thickens add double cream and light cream. Stir and pour into heatproof jug to serve.
• For the steaks heat an oiled pan, once hot add steaks and sear a couple of minutes on each side. Then cook until desired doneness. I bought really thick steaks so I cooked them 20-25 minutes for medium rare. So less cooking time if they are thin. Once cooked remove from pan and allow to stand for 5 minutes before serving.

BEEF FILLET STEAKS WITH PEPPER THYME SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat half the oil in a large frying pan, cook beef on both sides, until cooked as desired. Transfer to a warm oven to keep warm.
• If like me you have very thick steaks I find I can not cook them to a medium rare on the stove, without burning the outside so I finish them off in the oven for about 15 Min's, on a higher heat setting.
• Heat remaining oil in same pan, add celery, onion and garlic, cook, stirring until vegetables soften.
• Add wine; stir until liquid is reduced by half, add cream, peppercorns and stock, bring to the boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, about 5 Min's or until sauce thickens slightly. Stir in thyme leaves, serve immediately over steak.
• I served mine over celeriac mash and a carrot casserole as a side but serve with your favourite veg and potato.
