Masala Spiced Rib Eye Steaks With Tomato Okra Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Toast cumin, coriander, and peppercorns in a small skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool. Grind in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle, transfer to a bowl, and stir in cinnamon and salt. Season each steak with 2 tablespoons spice mixture; let stand 30 minutes. Meanwhile, toss okra, tomatoes, and chile with oil and 1 teaspoon spice mixture. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly brush hot grill with oil. Grill steaks until charred in places on bottom, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn steaks and add okra, tomatoes, and chile. Grill until vegetables are charred in places and tender, and a thermometer inserted into thickest part of steaks (do not touch bone) reaches 125 degrees for medium-rare. Transfer steaks and vegetables to a cutting board. While steaks rest, at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes, grill corn. Meanwhile, coarsely chop okra, tomatoes, and chile and transfer to a bowl. Toss relish with mint and season with salt. Thinly slice steaks across the grain and serve with relish.

Steps:

• For the spice mix: Mix the ingredients for the spice mix together.
• For the steak: Remove the steak from refrigeration 1 hour before cooking to allow steak to come to room temperature. Rub the steak with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then rub the spice mix on to the steak. Set aside.
• For the tomato relish: Remove stems from tomatoes and cut the larger ones in half. In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, jalapeno, shallots, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, parsley, cilantro and salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a large cast iron skillet or saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. When smoking hot sear the steak on all sides and place in the preheated oven. Allow the steak to roast until its internal temperature is 100 to 105 degrees F on a meat thermometer. Remove it from the oven and place steak on a cooling rack. Allow the steak to rest on the rack for 10 minutes.
• Remove the steak to a cutting board and slice 4 to 5 slices out of the eye of the steak, leaving some meat on the bone. Spoon the tomato relish over the top of the steak where the bone meets the slices.
