Slice the potato into fries, using a claw grip with your hand for safety.

Place the cut fries in a colander to remove moisture.

Separate egg yolks from the whites and add them to a blender.

Pour in truffle oil and white wine vinegar into the blender with the egg yolks.

Add a pinch of Cornish sea salt to the blender.

Blend until the mixture thickens and looks good.

Season the sirloin steak with salt and pepper on both sides.

Heat olive oil in a skillet until hot, then add the seasoned steak.

Sear the steak until it has a nice crust, adjusting for doneness as needed.

Finely slice leeks and wash them to remove any grit.

Add the pre-cooked fries to the hot oil and fry until crispy.

Add the sliced leeks to the oil for a quick cook.

Sprinkle salt on the fries after cooking.

Plate the steak and fries, serving with truffle aioli.
