Sometimes it's the simple things ... or cooks ... in life that bring great pleasure. Aged T-bone steaks from our local butcher served with triple cooked duck fat chips and some lovely sweetcorn. Steaks not messed about with, a bit of salt, pepper and butter, letting the meat speak for itself. Perfect end to a hectic week.

    Very nice.  Are those fries deep fried?  They look fantastic, great match for those steak.

    @EggNorth - they are indeed deep fried, although only at the end of a three stage cooking process, hence the name triple cooked chips ... or fries, in your vernacular :). Triple cooked chips are a bit of extra effort but so worth it.

    If you want to give it a try, the recipe is on my food blog. I use a slightly different method to the classical approach, which means that the chips are only deep fried once instead of twice. Which is my rationale behind saying I can have more on the plate ;).

    Yep, sometimes simple is best, especially at the end of a tiring (and tiresome) week. A meal like this, where the raw ingredients shine through without the need of either explanation or exploration, remind me of the great poem "The Learned Astromer" by Walt Whitman:

    When I heard the learned astronomer,
    When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,
    When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide,
       and measure them,
    When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with
       much applause in the lecture-room,
    How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
    Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself,
    In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
    Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.
