- 1 generous knob unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- Fresh thyme sprigs

- 500g small firm-fleshed potatoes
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked or sweet paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) fan-assisted.
- Wash and cut the potatoes into halves or uniform wedges.
- Toss the potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Arrange the potatoes cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 20 minutes before cooking.
- Pat the steaks completely dry and season generously with coarse salt and black pepper.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot.
- Add the neutral oil and sear the steaks according to your preferred doneness.
- During the final minute, add the butter, crushed garlic, thyme, and rosemary.
- Tilt the pan and continuously baste the steaks with the foaming herb butter.

Notes
For the best crust, ensure the steaks are completely dry before searing. Always rest the meat after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a tender and flavorful steak.
