Rib-Eye Steak Over Truffled Mashed Potatoes

Use a mallet or heavy pan to crush peppercorns in their bag until coarsely ground. Finely chop parsley. Peel, halve, and chop shallot. Toss green beans, a drizzle of oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast in oven until tender, 12-15 minutes.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Pat steak dry with a paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper. Add to pan and cook to desired doneness, 3-6 minutes per side. Remove from pan and set aside to rest. TIP: Loosely cover steak with aluminum foil to keep it warm.

Reduce heat under pan to medium-low and add a drizzle of oil. Add shallot and cook, tossing, until softened, 1-2 minutes. Stir in ¼ tsp crushed peppercorns (use more or less to taste), demi-glace, and ½ cup water. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until reduced, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat. Add 1 TBSP butter and half the sour cream. Stir until butter is melted. Season with salt and pepper.

Add remaining sour cream and ½ tsp truffle oil to pot with drained potatoes (we sent extra oil—use more or less to taste). Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. TIP: Add a splash of milk to make potatoes extra creamy.
