Recipe: my fancy steak and chips

August 2, 2014 by Shari

The other night, we invited some friends around for dinner and I thought that I would have a play with some of the ingredients that I had found at the Belconnen Fresh Food Markets. I was really excited to purchase some ghee and I thought that it would make some awesome yorkshire puddings.

When I went to serve up the dinner – I looked down and saw that what I had actually created was just ‘fancy’ steak and chips. But my dinner guests said that they enjoyed it nevertheless (or atleast I am hoping that they did and werent just being nice to my face).

I had been told that I would be disappointed by yorkshire puddings. But I don’t know if it was the ghee or the fresh grated horseradish or the fact that I had paired them with some delicious eye-fillet steaks with homemade tomato sauce… but these yorkshire puddings rocked my socks!
FANCY STEAK AND CHIPS
500 grams of potatoes
100 grams of eschallots
100 grams of kale
olive oil 
salt and pepper
6 eye fillet steaks
6 strips of streaky bacon
3 medium red onions
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
2 eggs
160mL milk
1 tablespoon freshly grated horseradish (but you could use horseradish cream if you were unable to find it)
1/2 cup of self raising flour
40 grams of ghee
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.
Peel and slice your potatoes into thick chips. Toss in a baking dish with the peeled eschallots, kale, oil and season and bake for 1 hour.
Whilst the ‘chips’ are in the oven, slice the red onions and simmer with balsamic vinegar and sugar until soft. Allow to cool slightly before spreading a little on the streaky bacon and then wrapping around the outside of your steak. I secured mine with a tooth pick, but you could also use some butcher’s string.
Sear your steaks in a frying pan before transferring to the oven to cook until your liking.
Place the eggs, milk and horseradish in a bowl and whisk to combine. Gradually add the flour and whisk until smooth. Set aside for 30 minutes. 
Divide the ghee between 6 muffin tins. Place the tin on a tray and allow to heat up in the oven for 5-7 minutes. Remove from the oven and then divide the batter between the muffin tin. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until puffed and golden.

Family meals for my tribe of 6
Hi guys 👋🏻 I seem to have had a few new foll Hi guys 👋🏻 I seem to have had a few new followers of late. I wonder if you’re here because of my reels?? (And if so, you’ll probably also want to follow @smallbusinessgrowthclub )

If you are new… here is a little intro… I’m Shari - a mum of four small boys (although their little hands seem to be getting better and bigger). They are nine, seven, five and three.

I whip up quick and easy meals for my family. I currently work full time and so the content juggle is real 😩

But the thing is, I actually also have a blog - www.GoodFoodWeek.com.au - so you can drop by there for some of my tried and tested favourites. I’m fact, this Spanish beef is one of the most viewed recipes on the blog!

And if you aren’t new - I’d love to hear what are some of your favourite recipes from my blog.

Walking into our wedding like ‘can you believe w Walking into our wedding like ‘can you believe we just did that?’

How does it feel like this was just a moment ago? And yet also a lifetime ago? It’s been 10 years to be precise…

Thanks for being by my side, day in and day out @phillipujdur
I mean, we did celebrate our 10th wedding annivers I mean, we did celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary in style with @huntervalleyhelicopters …

But today, it’s back to reality of work and school drop offs/pick ups and sick children 🤧- so we decided to throw ourselves a little pizza party thanks to @mccain_au

I feel like the boys have had an overload of chocolate and I want to take it back to healthier alternatives… 

But in our household, I feel like everyone goes through stages. One week they’ll eat all the bananas in one day, so the following week I’ll order 3kgs instead of 1kg and no one will eat banana 🤦🏼‍♀️

I mean, I freeze them for smoothies or make banana bread so they don’t go to waste. 

But I’m keen to hear what snacks are popular in your household at the moment?

I’ve been reading a lot about self love of late. I feel like there is so much self sacrifice when you’re a mother, and yet I am starting to realise that I need to love myself first to be a better mum and partner.

So here is to starting with something small for me. These @byronbaycookies are the business!!

Shari from GoodFoodWeek

GoodFoodWeek started in 2008 as a way of sharing recipes with uni friends and family who were spread near and far. It has evolved over the years to contain my ramblings as I’ve searched for a house, planned the perfect veggie patch, stumbled through farmer’s markets with my eye half open (because you need to be there at 6am to get the fresh eggs), had babies, gathered family and friends around a shared table, laughed out loud and enjoyed life to the fullest!
