Directions

1
Preheat oven (electric cooker: 225 °C/circulating air: 200 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Wash potatoes thoroughly, brush them off if necessary. Coat each with 1 tablespoon of oil, place on a baking tray and bake in a hot oven for approx. 1 hour.

In the meantime peel the shrimps, except for the tail fins. Make a longitudinal incision in the back and remove the dark intestine if necessary. Rinse shrimps and pat dry. Peel garlic and cut into thin slices.
3
Wash the thyme and dab dry.

Dab steaks dry and cut the fat edge several times crosswise. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan. Fry 2 steaks on each side over high heat for 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap them in aluminium foil and let them rest for 5-8 minutes.
5
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the frying fat and fry the other two steaks in the same way and let them rest.
6
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the frying fat. Fry the prawns for 2-3 minutes, turning them over. Fry garlic and thyme briefly. Season with salt and pepper.

Take the potatoes out of the oven, cut them crosswise and press them on lightly. Serve with sour cream, steaks and prawns. Serve with vegetables tossed in butter, such as zucchini and peppers.
