Put the chutney aside. Coarsely crush the peppercorns in a mortar. Heat the frying fat in the deep fryer or a pot. Heat clarified butter in a frying pan, fry the steaks on both sides for about 2 minutes, sprinkle with salt and pepper mixture and fry for another 3 minutes on medium heat. Fry the French fries in frying fat until golden brown, drain on a sieve and serve with the steaks and the chutney. Garnish with pepper pancakes
