Instructions:
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Cut the potatoes into thin strips to form fries.
- Rinse the fries in cold water to remove excess starch, and then pat them dry thoroughly with a clean towel.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the fries to the skillet in a single layer. Cook until golden brown and crispy.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the fries from the skillet and set them aside, keeping them warm.
- Season the beef with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef to the skillet and cook to your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the steak.
- While the steak is cooking, mix the rum, maple syrup, vinegar, and mustard in a bowl until well combined.
- Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest on a plate.
- Lower the heat to medium and pour the rum and maple glaze mixture into the skillet.
- Let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
- Once the glaze has thickened, return the steak to the skillet and coat it with the glaze for about 1 minute on each side.
- Slice the steak into serving portions.
- Arrange the steak slices on a plate and drizzle with the remaining rum and maple glaze from the skillet.
- Serve alongside the crispy fries.
Tips:
- Ensure the beef is at room temperature before cooking to achieve an even sear.
- Use a meat thermometer to check for desired doneness: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium.
- Cut the potatoes into evenly sized pieces for more consistent cooking.
- Soak the potato pieces in cold water for about 30 minutes before frying to remove excess starch and achieve crispier fries.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
