Servings: 2

Preparation duration: 20 minutes

Cooking duration: 30 minutes

 

Ingredients:

600g medium King Edward potatoes or Maris Piper potatoes

sunflower oil, for frying

2 x 200g 8oz beef steaks

2 handfuls mixed leaves

dressing, to serve

50g butter, softened

small handful parsley leaves, finely chopped

1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)

small tablespoon lemon juice

Equipment:

kitchen towels

sauce pan

slotted spoon

wooden spoon

frying pan

griddle

Cooking instruction summary:

First make the butter: mash all the ingredients together with lots of cracked black pepper. Pat the butter flat between cling film (itll chill quicker when thinner) and put in the fridge or freezer to harden. Cut the potatoes into neat chips, rinse under hot water, then dry on a tea towel. Place the chips in a deep saucepan (they should only come up a third of the way) and just cover with cold oil. Place the pan on a medium heat, bring the oil to a simmer and give the chips a stir with a wooden spoon. Increase the heat so the oil bubbles really quickly and fry the chips, stirring occasionally so they dont stick, until crisp and golden the whole process will take 15-20 mins. When they are done, scoop out with a slotted spoon onto a plate lined with kitchen paper and set aside. Meanwhile, heat the griddle pan until smoking hot. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and rub with a little oil how you cook your steak will depend on the cut you have chosen and its thickness. For a steak thats 2cm thick, cook it for 2 mins on each side for rare, adding 1 min more for every increasing degree of doneness. Just before lifting the steaks off the griddle, place half the butter on top of each. Serve the steaks with the chips, some mixed leaves and a tangy dressing.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
