Creating this incredible dish at home can be straightforward when following these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Potatoes: Begin by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into thin strips for the fries.
2. Soak the Potatoes: Place the potato strips in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps in achieving crispiness.
3. Dry the Potatoes: Drain and pat dry the potato strips with kitchen towels.
4. Heat Oil for Frying: Fill a deep pot with vegetable oil, enough to submerge the potatoes. Heat the oil to 325°F (160°C).
5. Fry the Potatoes: Fry the potato strips in batches until they are tender but not colored, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
6. Increase Oil Temperature: Raise the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C) for the second fry.
7. Second Fry: Fry the potatoes again in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Drain on paper towels, and sprinkle with salt.
8. Cooking the Steak: While the fries are frying, season the steaks generously with salt and pepper.
9. Sear the Steak: In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil or clarified butter over high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
10. Add Butter and Herbs: Optionally, in the last minute of cooking, add a tablespoon of butter and fresh herbs, basting the steaks for added flavor.
11. Rest the Steak: Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
12. Serve: Slice the steak against the grain and serve alongside the crispy fries. Add dipping sauces if desired.
