    Instructions

    Steak

    • Take steaks out of the fridge 30 min before cooking.

    • Coarsely crack the whole peppercorns with a pestle and mortar (for both the crust and the sauce).

    • Salt the steak both sides, then press the cracked pepper firmly onto both surfaces so it sticks as a crust.

    • Sear in hot oil. Add butter near the end and baste.

    • Use a probe thermometer to check the steak's internal temperature. Remove it from the heat at 51°C for a perfect medium finish - it carries over to 55°C while resting.

    • Rest, loosely covered with foil.

    Au poivre sauce

    • Same pan: sweat the chopped onions in the fond.

    • Add broth, reduce by half.

    • Add cooking cream and the cracked peppercorns, simmer to a coating consistency.

    • Off heat, swirl in a knob of butter. Season.

    Fries

    • Fry the shoestrings until crisp and golden. Salt straight out of the oil.

    • Plate steak, spoon over sauce, pile fries high. Scatter chopped chives over the steak. Serve immediately.
