TIPS FOR SUCCESS:
• Steak Selection: Sirloin is recommended for its flavor and tenderness, but you can also use ribeye
steak or tenderloin for a more luxurious dish.
• Potato size: Make sure the potatoes are cut into evenly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.Smaller
pieces cook faster and are crispier.
• Doneness: To achieve the best texture, avoid overcooking the steak. Medium-rare is ideal because
the steak will still cook slightly when added back to the pan with the hot potatoes.
