"This meal took me 20 min to prepare from scratch and only cost $7 to make... Cholula optional."


Ingredients:
-Steak (New York)
-Potatoes (Yukon Gold)
-Fresh herb (Rosemary)
-Garlic
-Whipping Creme
-Butter



Mashed Potatoes
1. Boil water in a saucepan and season with a nice big pinch of salt.
2. Add the peeled and cubed potatoes to the water until they are tender enough to mash with the backside of a fork.
3. Strain water from the saucepan and return to stovetop on low heat.
4. Mash the potatoes with a little butter and whipping creme then salt and pepper to taste.
5. Cover and remove from heat until ready to serve.

Steak
1. Heat a saute pan on med high and add a splash of olive oil.
2. Add a pinch of salt and cracked pepper to the steak and place in hot pan, presentation side down.
3. Let the steak sear on that side for a few minutes, or until a nice dark crust starts to form.
4. Flip the steak now and add a little butter, peeled garlic clove and fresh rosemary right to the pan.
5. Cook for a couple more minutes, basting the steak while you wait and remove when desired temperature is achieved. 

Plate and eat!
