  • 450 g new potatoes

Method

  1. Season the steak liberally with salt and black pepper and allow it to come to room temperature.

  2. Once the steak is ready, preheat a large skillet over high heat and add palm oil.

  3. Once oil begins to smoke, add the steak and cook it to the desired temperature.

  4. Allow the steak to rest at least 5 minutes before slicing.

For the Aji Amarillo Sauce:

  1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and whisk to emulsify.

  2. Season to taste and reserve until ready to use.

For the Crispy Potatoes:

  1. Preheat fryer to 162.8 °C. Meanwhile, bring a pot full of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes to water and cook until potatoes are fork-tender - about 15 minutes. Remove from the water and cut in half.

  2. Next, deep fry for 2-3 minutes, or until lightly golden. Place on a paper-lined tray to soak up the extra oil. Refrigerate overnight.

  3. In the morning, preheat the fryer to 176.7 °C. Add potatoes and fry until golden brown and crisp. Season immediately with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

For the Garnish/Salad:

  1. Place all ingredients in a small bowl and season with lime juice, salt and black pepper.

  2. Reserve until ready to use.
