Juicy pan-seared beef steak served with creamy mushroom mashed potatoes—an indulgent, savory dish packed with rich flavors and perfect for a satisfying dinner.

Ingredients

For the Steak

  • 2 beef steaks (ribeye or sirloin)
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 garlic cloves (crushed)
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary, a few sprigs

For the Mushroom Mash

  • 700 g potatoes (peeled & chopped)
  • 200 g mushrooms (sliced)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 100 ml milk or cream
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the Mushroom Mash: Boil the peeled and chopped potatoes in salted water until they are fork-tender. Meanwhile, in a pan, sauté the sliced mushrooms in butter until they turn golden and most of their moisture evaporates. Add minced garlic and cook briefly until fragrant. Drain the potatoes well and mash them with butter and warm milk or cream. Fold in the sautéed mushrooms and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Cook the Steak: Pat the beef steaks dry and season generously with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a hot skillet until shimmering. Sear the steaks for 2 to 4 minutes on each side depending on thickness and desired doneness. Add butter, crushed garlic cloves, and fresh herbs to the pan, then spoon the melted butter continuously over the steaks (basting) for added flavor and juiciness. After cooking, transfer the steaks to a plate and rest for 5 minutes to retain juices.
  3. Assemble: Plate the creamy mushroom mash first, then place the rested steak on top or alongside it. Drizzle with the flavorful pan juices before serving for an extra burst of flavor.

Notes

  • Allow the steak to come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.
  • Use high heat for searing to achieve a perfect crust on the steak.
  • Do not skip resting the steak after cooking; resting keeps the meat juicy and tender.
  • You can use either milk or cream in the mash depending on your preference for richness.
  • Fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary complement the steak well, but you can adjust based on what you have on hand.
