Prepare the Fries
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato strips in batches until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
Cook the Steak
Season the steaks with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your preferred doneness. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes.
Make the Peppercorn Sauce
In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant. Add beef broth and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and crushed peppercorns. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Season with salt.
Assemble the Dish
