Steak Dinner

It was St. Valentine's Day dinner and my in-laws were kind enough to bring us a porterhouse steak.  Being the sharing type, I cut it into two sections; the "New York" Strip and the sirloin.  Steamed vegs and tators as side dishes.

Garlic & Rosemary Potatoes - 

All I did here was slice the tators into halves or quarters, tossed in some olive oil, chopped garlic, rosemary, caraway seeds, salt, pepper.  Roasted in the oven at 350 for about 40 mins until soft to a fork.

Steamed Veggies - 

Chopped up some broccoli, bok choi, fennel,  and garlic.  Steamed until soft.  Dressed it with olive oil and salt and pepper.

The Steak - 

Simple pan cook with a little pepper until medium rare (had I been paying more attention I would have preferred mine rare.)  Steaks come out and rested while I cooked up some sliced onions with butter in the same pan as used to cook the steaks.

Little more pepper and truffle salt over the steaks and call it done.  Served with a bottle of Cafe Negro porter.

Happy Valentine's day indeed.
