Ribeye With Mashed Potatoes And Mushroom Sauce Recipes

STEAKS WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Pat steaks dry with paper towel. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
• Heat a lightly oiled skillet or pan (or barbecue) on high heat until just beginning to smoke. Cook steaks for 3 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking. Rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat remaining oil in the skillet. Add onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until onions are translucent, then add the garlic and cook for a further 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
• Add the sliced mushrooms into the skillet and cook for 3 minutes until golden and beginning to soften.
• Reduce heat to medium and melt butter in the skillet. Add flour and cook while stirring for 1 minute, allowing the flour to brown slightly.
• Slowly and gradually add in the beef broth (or stock), while stirring. Allow to simmer for 4-5 minutes, or until thickened. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Add the steaks back into the gravy in the pan along with the juices on the plate OR serve steaks with the onion mushroom gravy on the side. Garnish with chopped thyme, parsley or rosemary if desired.

RIB-EYE STEAK AND POTATOES FOR TWO

Steps:

• Season steak generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with sliced garlic and rosemary and set aside to marinate, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Meanwhile, bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook at a brisk simmer until just done, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
• Heat a cast-iron or other heavy skillet over high heat. Remove and discard sliced garlic from steak. (If left on, it will burn in the skillet.)
• When pan is hot, put in the steak and let brown well on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Wait until steak forms a crust and comes away cleanly from the bottom to move it.
• Flip steak and transfer pan to oven, uncovered. Roast until juices begin to rise on surface of steak (you will see the droplets) and internal temperature is 120 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove steak from pan and let rest, tented with foil, for 5 to 10 minutes. (Residual heat will continue to cook the meat to medium-rare as it rests.) Warm a serving bowl for the potatoes and plates for the steak.
• Melt butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and toss to coat and heat through. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add minced garlic and cook, stirring, until softened but not browned, 1 minute or less. Gently stir in parsley and lemon zest and transfer to serving bowl.
• Cutting on a slight diagonal, slice steak into 1/2-inch slices, then transfer to plates. If using, place a handful of greens next to the steak. Serve immediately, passing potatoes at the table.

STANDING RIB ROAST WITH POTATOES AND PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475°F.
• Make seasoning mixture:
• In a small bowl stir together seasoning mixture ingredients. Put roast, ribs side down, in center of a flameproof roasting pan, 18 by 12 by 2 inches, and rub oil on top and sides of beef so herbs will adhere. Reserve
• 1 tablespoon seasoning mixture and rub remainder on top and sides of beef. Roast beef in lower third of oven 20 minutes.
• Peel potatoes and halve crosswise. Remove pan from oven and skim all but about 1/2 cup fat from pan with a bulb baster or spoon. Arrange potatoes around beef and turn with tongs to coat with fat. Season potatoes with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to 350°F. and roast beef and potatoes, turning potatoes occasionally to brown evenly, 1 1/2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted in fleshy part of beef registers 130°F. for medium-rare.
• While beef and potatoes are roasting, separate mushroom stems and caps. Slice caps 1/3-inch thick. In a food processor pulse stems until chopped coarse and in a small saucepan combine with broth and water. Simmer mixture 10 minutes. Pour mixture through a sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on solids, and discard solids.
• Transfer beef to a platter and let rest, covered loosely with foil, 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer potatoes to another platter and keep warm.
• With bulb baster or spoon skim all but about 1/4 cup fat from pan. In pan on top of stove sauté mushroom caps over moderately high heat, stirring, 2 minutes. Add reserved tablespoon seasoning mixture, mushroom liquid, and any juices from beef and boil 5 minutes. Stir in beurre manié and boil, stirring, about 3 minutes, or until thickened slightly.
• Serve beef with sauce and sprinkle potatoes with parsley.
