How to Make a Delicious Steak and Mashed Potatoes

Who doesn't love a classic steak and mashed potatoes? When you go out to eat them, they can cost well over ten dollars, and at the expensive places it may even hit fifty dollars. So why not make this delicious goodness at the comfort of your own house? Spend a little under five dollars and get yourself a nice piece of steak, steamed vegetables, and mashed potatoes.

The ingredients that you will need are: top loin steak, a potatoe, some vegetables (whichever kind you would like), some milk, salt, pepper, and butter.

Cook Steak

First we're going to prepare the steak. In this recipe, we're going to do a simple seasoning with simple salt and pepper. If you have a rub that you want to add in, that's fine too. Rubbing it down with some rub is much better than salt and pepper, but we don't usually have rub at our house, so most of the times it's simple salt and pepper. Make sure to get both sides and leave it on the side for a little bit.

Take two pots of water and bring it to a boil. Add some salt in both pots and in one pot take your potato, roughly chop it, and throw them in. In the other pot, add your vegetables and steam them.

Now take a pan, raise it to high heat, and add some oil. In a couple of seconds, take your steak and put it gently on the pan as to get rid of excess oil flying at you. The secret to having a juicy steak is flipping it only once and not poking any holes in it. This will let the juice run out and you'll get a dry steak. We're also cooking it on high heat so we can seal in the flavor. This kind of steak should take about five minutes on each side to cook.

So while we're waiting for the steak to cook, let's turn to the potatoes and vegetables. The vegetables shouldn't take that long to cook. It should be done in a couple of minutes. Once it's done, drain the water and add it back to its pot. Turn the heat on medium and add a little salt and pepper and some butter. This will give the vegetables an extra layer of flavor.

As for the potatoes, they will take a bit longer. You will know they're done when you can easily stick a fork through it. Once they're done, drain the water and add it back to its pot. Turn the heat on medium and add your milk, butter, salt, and pepper. Now take a flat object and start mashing your potatoes. The milk and butter will help in this process as well as give you flavorful mashed potatoes. Once you've finished mashing your potatoes, mix it for a little bit and serve it on a plate. Next to the potatoes, layer on your vegetables.

Now, once both sides of the steak is done, drop the heat a little bit and cook until your steak is cooked as desired. Then, simply serve on the plate with your potatoes and vegetables and enjoy! If you calculate the ingredients and the amount used, it should run you a little less than five dollars for that hearty meal.
