Instructions
- Wash the beef steaks and pat them dry, then season generously with salt and pepper.
- Mince the garlic cloves and rub onto both sides of the steaks.

- Heat 4 tablespoons olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the diced onion and sauté for 2-3 min until softened, then add the steaks and fry for 2 min on each side.
- Remove the steaks from the pan and set aside.
- Add the pickled peppercorns and pepper rings to the hot pan.
- Pour 100 ml water over everything and simmer for approx. 20 min.
- While the sauce simmers, preheat a deep fryer to 180°C (356°F).
- Wash the young potatoes and cut them into narrow wedges.
- Fry the potato wedges in the hot oil for 5-7 min until golden brown, then remove and drain.
- Season the fried potatoes with salt and paprika powder.
- Once the sauce has simmered 20 min, remove from heat, season with salt, pepper, and a dash of Tabasco, then stir in the crème fraîche until combined.
- Place the steaks on serving plates, pour the sauce over them, and serve with the fried potatoes.
