Filet Moomignon with Haricots Vert and BBQ Leek

We had the most perfect steak last night. We ate like Khaliisi and Kahl (Queen and King). Here's how we did it, step by step. One of our favorite restaurants serves a simple steak and all you can eat fries. Why pay crazy prices when you can make it yourself... even better.

1. For the frozen fries:- shoestring work best.
-Preheat the oven, according to directions, sprinkle with coarse salt and bake. (They usually take longest, so start them off first).

2. For the french fry sauce: Mix together (ratio 2:1) mayo:dijon (tablespoon)

3. For the haricots:
- Place a handful of clean beans on a piece of foil, drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper; wrap and put on the BBQ.

4. For the leek:
- Cut off green part, drizzle white part with oil, salt and pepper, and place directly on the grill.

5. For the filet mignon:
- We had nice sized pieces and we like it on the more rare side (but not still moo-ing). So brush oil on each side, sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper and put on the grill- 4 minutes, flip and then 2 minutes. I'm telling you: perfect. Time it right, so that where you do put the meat on, there is about 5-10 minutes left on the fries.




Moolicious!
