Grilled Steak Frites Burger
“Combining two French classics into one delicious burger.”
This Steak Frites Burger will whisk you away to a Parisian restaurant from the comfort of your own home.
Steak Frites is a very popular dish originating from France and Belgium. Commonly served in brasseries across Europe, it is a staple dish for any French restaurant. We decided to take this classic dish and combine it with another traditional French food – brioche! Using our Brioche Burger Buns, slices of tender and juicy steak and crispy fries, this Steak Frites Burger will whisk your tastebuds away to Paris.
- 4 St Pierre Brioche Burger Buns
- 4 large potatoes
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1-2 tbsp mustard (whichever type of mustard you prefer)
- 1 tbs chopped fresh parsley
- 2 thick cut steaks (we like rib-eye)
- Salt and black pepper
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Lambs lettuce
Ideally, use a deep fat fryer to make your chips, but you can use a chip pan if you prefer – always take care and follow safety guidelines, never leaving the pan unattended.
- Peel the potatoes (or just scrub and leave the skin on) and cut them into thin chips before soaking in cold water for 10 minutes
- Drain the potatoes and leave to dry on kitchen paper for half an hour before frying, while you prepare everything else
- Mix together the mayo, mustard and chopped parsley and set aside
- Season the steak with salt and pepper and fry or griddle to your personal taste
- Cover the cooked steak with a piece of foil and rest while you cook the frites (chips)
- Heat up the deep fat fryer and dry half the frites for a few minutes until just starting to color round the edges. They won’t be cooked yet, but tip out onto a baking tray while you part cook the second batch
- Now return the frites to the dryer and continue to cook for another few minutes until golden and crispy. Place on kitchen paper, season with salt and pepper
- Grill the inside of the burger buns before layering on the mustard mayo and the lettuce
Slice the steak and divide between the buns - Top with the crispy chips before popping on the lids
Bon appétit!
