Ingredients
For the Steak Bites:
• 1 lb (450g) sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• Salt and pepper to taste

• ½ cup (120ml) milk
• 4 tbsp (60g) unsalted butter
• Salt and pepper to taste
• ½ cup (120ml) heavy cream (optional for extra creaminess)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:
1. Place the peeled and chopped potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15–20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Add the steak bites to the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
4. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, add the butter and minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minute, until the garlic is fragrant.
6. Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce for another 1–2 minutes to coat the steak.
3. Assemble the Dish:
1. Plate the mashed potatoes and top with the garlic butter steak bites.
2. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
