Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Steak Frites
  1. Prep the Potatoes: Peel and slice the russet potatoes into 1/3-inch thick sticks. Soak in ice water for 15 minutes to remove starch, then drain and dry.
  2. Initial Frying: Heat refined peanut oil to 300°F (150°C). Fry potato sticks for 3-4 minutes until softened, then drain.
  3. Cook the Steak: Season ribeye with salt and pepper. Sear in olive oil over medium-high heat for 4-6 minutes each side for medium-rare. Let rest with butter on top for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Final Frying: Increase oil temperature to 350°F (175°C) and fry potatoes again for 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Drain and season.
  5. Serve: Slice the ribeye against the grain, arrange fries and serve with garlic aioli.
