MAIN

Prep time: 5 minutes Cook time: 20 – 40 minutes

Côte de Boeuf 

The beef is best cooked on the hob in a nice hot pan. You shouldn’t need any oil in the pan as the natural fats from the meat will help you out here. 

  1. Remove the Côte de Boeuf from its packaging at least half an hour before cooking to allow it to reach room temperature.   
  2. Sear in a hot pan to desired temperature. Avoid turning too often. We recommend 10 minutes on each side for medium rare to medium and 20 minutes on each side for well done. 
  3. Remove from the pan and rest your steak under a layer of foil for 3 – 5 minutes.

Frites

  1. Pre-heat the oven (Fan oven at 180°C / electric oven at 200°C / gas mark 6).
  2. Empty the frites onto a non-stick baking tray and spread evenly.
  3. Place into the centre of the oven for 25 minutes or until golden.
  4. Season with salt to taste.

Garlic Butter – ready to serve. Slice into rounds and place onto the cooked steak.

Peppercorn Sauce

Creamed Spinach

DESSERT
