Rib Eye Steak and Mashed Potatoes with Truffle Oil

Hehe my food blog 8D Also, if I could only figure out how to customize the “non-main” blog :\

calelandhisfood:

Hello Everyone! Since I just wanted to post something in my “food blog,” I decided to take a picture of what I made for dinner. Pictures are from my instagram! (calelg)

This is really simple! I’m sure all of you can do it :)

My mom told me that we had truffle oil, and told me to make use of it. I researched about truffle oil, and found out that it is actually a finishing oil(not used for cooking, as you’ll lose the taste of the truffles) made by soaking truffles in olive oil! I also found out that it is good with mashed potatoes.

Okay so the amount of truffle oil here, is a bit exaggerated. You don’t have to put this much. Maybe a teaspoon or two per cup of mashed potatoes :) Now let me explain how I did my mashed potatoes.

You will need the following:

1.8 kg of Potates(or you could more or less go for 2 kg, its an approximate number)

1 cup of half and half milk(which is basically just equal parts whole milk and cream)

2/3 cup of butter(use the whole bar of butter if you want it extra buttery!)

Salt and Pepper to taste

Truffle Oil to your liking

Now for the procedure:

Boil your potatoes until they are tender. You’ll know they’re ready if they are poke-able and not hard inside. You can choose to peel them before or after boiling. Mash them, and add the rest of the ingredients. Mix. That’s it. How easy was that?

Oh right, this serves about 5 - 8 people, depending on how hungry they are.

Now I didn’t really know how to take a picture of the steak, but I hope you get the idea haha. I love steak, and I want it simple. I made my steak medium-rare. I don’t have a picture of the inside, but it is red inside.

I’m not a big fan of having gravy with my steak, if the steak is great alone. I only used the following:

4 pieces of rib eye steak(Almost 2kg I guess, they were huge!)

1 clove of garlic per steak

Rock Salt to taste(I put a pinch per side)

Pepper to taste(Since we’re talking of pinches, maybe 3 pinches per side)

Cayenne Pepper to taste(2 pinches per side)

Spanish Paprika to taste(a pinch per side)

All you have to do is rub all the ingredients on the steak and leave it in the refrigerator while waiting for the potatoes to be tender. Once they are tender and mashed, you can start grilling your steak. I didn’t grill it that long, just a few minutes per side(about 5 on the initial grill, flip, and then 3 minutes).

This can serve 5-8 people, depending on how hungry they are as well.

Voila! You are done! Now that wasn’t so hard was it?

I’ll teach you guys to make Puttanesca next time :) Ta ta for now! See you guys next time ;)
