Alright people, are we feeling manly? I know I am.
There is nothing more manly than a big steak cooked medium rare (closer to rare) and when you whack on some roasted Dutch carrots, potato and mushrooms, and a little asparagus. Then drizzle on some Red Wine Jus, well you have a fucking splendid meal fit for a fancy restaurant.
What you need-
2 porterhouse steaks (I had some thick cut ones that weighed around 300gms)
A bunch of Dutch carrots
3 small potatoes
4 smallish mushies
A bunch of asparagus
1 cup of red wine (something nice because you drink the rest with dinner)
1 cup of beef stock
Half an onion finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic crushed
2 tablespoons of butter
Olive oil
What you do-
Cut your potatoes in half and bung ‘em in some water and in the microwave for 8 mins on high. Have your oven pre-heated to 180c. Wash your carrots, brush the dirt off your mushies and throw them on an oven tray drizzle with olive oil, season and whack it in the oven. When the potatoes are done throw them on the oven tray too. (Olive oil and season too) Cool, forget about them for 40 mins.
Get the asparagus and chop off the woody end and put it in some water ready for the microwave.
With about 20 mins to go on the roasted veg, you should start cooking your steak. Now with my thick cut steaks I sealed them both sides for 3 mins then whacked it in the oven for ten mins then rested them for ten mins. Remember to season your steaks just before you cook them.
Red Wine Jus. Now this is just a basic Red Wine Jus, for an authentic “Jus” you should use the liquid from the meat, but this one’s quick and easy and tastes friggin’ awesome.
Alright in a small saucepan fry off the garlic and onion in some olive oil until really brown and sticking to the saucepan. Now put in the cup of red wine and de-glaze the pan by scraping all the goodness of the bottom, and rapidly boil it until it has reduced by half. Then whack in the beef stock and rapidly boil until it has reduced by half, stir in the butter and boil for another couple of mins or until it has reduced by 3/4. Done.
Put asparagus in the microwave on high for 4 mins.
Place everything on plate and drizzle with Jus. Serve.
