Date night?


What's a simple meal that can satisfy your significant other?

For me- I can be won over easily by steak.
So, I decided to cook a peppercorn steak for my boyfriend, with a few grilled potatoes rubbed in olive oil and herbs.



Recipe for peppercorn sauce:

  • peppercorn
  • ground pepper
  • salt
  • soy sauce
  • oyster sauce
  • onion (a quarter of one)
  • garlic
  • flour
  • olive oil
  1. dice the onion and garlic into small pieces
  2. heat the pan on medium heat and spread a dollop of olive oil on the pan
  3. first place garlic in the pan, and once it's browned place onion
  4. once they are both caramelized, add water (depending on how much sauce you want to make) I usually just guess how much water I want, because you can always add more later
  5. Just like the water, you can decide on how much soy sauce and oyster sauce you want to put in. But if you're unsure, just add 2 table spoons or soy sauce and 1 table spoon of oyster sauce
  6. add black peppercorn and ground pepper
