No mis-steak about it, this recipe is a winner. Our version of the French bistro fave features cuts of top sirloin beef, pan-seared to their juicy best. What else would you serve them with but frites, bien sûr! In this case, the fries take the form of roasted potato wedges cut thick for a meatiness of their own. Working from the pan fond, you’ll whip up a velvety sauce with whole-grain mustard and apple cider vinegar. Salad with that? Oui, and top it with beets.

Preparation
Roast the potatoes
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Cut the potatoes lengthwise into ½ inch wedges. On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil and S&P. Roast, adding ½ the garlic and flipping halfway, 20 to 25 min., until browned and tender.
Cook the steaks
Meanwhile, in a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Pat the steaks* dry with paper towel; season with the spices and S&P. Cook, 3 to 5 min. per side, until cooked as desired (to ensure a consistent temperature throughout, turn over at least twice). Transfer to a cutting board, leaving any browned bits in the pan. Reserve the pan. Let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain.
Make the sauce
In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Sauté the remaining garlic, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the demi-glace, ⅔ of the mustard, ½ the vinegar and 2 tbsp water (double for 4 portions). Cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, 2 to 3 min., until reduced. Off the heat, add 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions); stir well. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.
Make the salad
Separate the lettuce leaves; tear the leaves. In a large bowl, combine the remaining mustard and vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Add the lettuce and beets; toss well.
Plate your dish
Divide the potatoes, steaks and salad between your plates. Spoon the sauce over the steaks. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking beef to a minimum internal temperature of 63°C.
