Steak With Mushrooms and Cauliflower Puree
Yunhee Kim
How to Make It
Step 1
Fill a large pot with 1-inch water and fit with a steamer basket. Bring to a simmer. Place the cauliflower in the steamer basket, cover, and steam until very tender, 18 to 22 minutes. Transfer to a food processor, add the butter, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and puree until smooth.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing; reserve the skillet.
Step 3
Add the mushrooms to the drippings in the skillet and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced and syrupy, 2 to 3 minutes more; season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
Step 4
Serve the steak with the cauliflower puree. Top with the mushroom sauce and sprinkle with the parsley.

I've tried this recipe three times. The best thing about it is the cauliflower puree. It is really good. The mushrooms aren't so great. In five minutes they just weren't that flavorful and the wine dried up in that time in the pan. The meat was just plain tough and I sliced it the proper direction. I paid $19 for the meat. What a waste. I think there must be more to cooking skirt steak than what RS tells us. This is a tough piece of meat to begin with. I just chewed it and spit it out. It was that tough. Perhaps a marinade would have helped. The recipe could have been better if it had more explicit directions, too. Sometimes real simple is not the best way.

I'm about to make this for the third time' it's that good. Easy to make, tastes like you're dining out. like others my husband and I were blown away how good the cauliflower is. I will look for substitutes like salmon etc, but right now it is my husband's new favorite. I like the fact that we can make it last for two meals.

I've made this several times now and it's one of my favorites. It's easy, it's quick, it's delicious. I have used skirt steak and flatiron--I love it with either. The biggest surprise--pureed cauliflower. Amazing. Who knew?

This was a big hit at our house. I used flank steak and it worked well. I was left with very little sauce because I cooked it too long, which was very disappointing because it was delicious! My 9 year old asked if I could always make steak this way, which is quite a compliment. I used a potato masher instead of the food processor for the cauliflower, so it wasn't really a puree, but really looked like mashed potatoes. It was good, but I may puree it next time.

I made this last night and since we do not eat red meat, I substituted chicken breast cut into medallions and gently fried. It was awesome and made such a beautiful presentation. The cauliflower puree wonderful. This recipe will be a regular and I will also try salmon.

Delicous and super easy. I had to substitue tenderloin cause I couldn't find skirt steak, too. I'm excited to explore more recipes here cause this makes two for two now!

Made this about a week ago for dinner. Couldn't find skirt steak, so I used tenderloin and it turned out fabulous! I highly recommend this recipe and will definitely put in my recipe folder!
