Sirloin Steak Broiled in a Whiskey Sauce with Sautéed Potatoes

(Faux Filet aux sauce Whiskey et Pommes Sautée)

 

Very basic cooking.  Slight twist in the flavours.  Quick and easy and tasty.

 

These quantities are for 1 person, so half, double or whatever depending on the number of people you are cooking for.

 

 

Ingredients

Extra virgin olive oil

Rock salt

Steak pepper (or crushed peppercorns)

1 sirloin steak

2 small mushrooms

50ml whiskey

A small knob of butter

 

Sautéed Potatoes

5 small "new" potatoes

1 shallot (or small onion)

1 clove of garlic

Extra virgin olive oil

 

 

Preparation in Advance

Boil the potatoes so that they are only just cooked (not too soft but able to accept a fork).

Chop the shallots and garlic and mushroom very finely.

 

Potatoes

Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan and add the previously prepared potato halves. Heat through & turn regularly for about 3 minutes. Add the shallot and garlic along with a knob of butter, keep hot and don't let the onion or garlic burn.
 

Steak

Heat a dry frying pan.  Coat the steak on both sides with the salt and pepper.  On a plate, coat both sides of the steak in olive oil then re-season with salt and crushed peppercorns.  Dip the sliced mushrooms in olive oil. Fry the steak and mushrooms together (about 2 minutes each side will be rare).  Pour in the whiskey and broil until the alcohol is mostly burnt off.  Do not allow the sauce to completely reduce down. At the end of cooking, drop in a small knob of butter and allow to melt into the sauce.  Serve hot with the potatoes alongside.
