Ingredients

Truffle Mashed Potatoes

  • 4 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream 
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 
  • 1 tablespoon truffle oil 
  • ¼ cup sour cream 
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Roasted Corn & Fennel

  • 2 cups corn kernels
  • 1 fennel bulb, sliced thinly
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, to tate
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steak

  • 4 8-ounce tri-tip steaks

Onion-Tomato Vinaigrette

  • 1 8-ounce jar roasted tomatoes, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 cup parsley, chopped
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, to taste
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 450°F
2
In a large pot, cover the potatoes with cold water and bring to a simmer. Simmer until soft but not mushy, about 16 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Mash with a potato masher. Quickly fold in the cream cheese, heavy cream, butter, truffle oil and sour cream and season to taste. 
3
On a baking sheet, toss the corn, fennel, oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 10-15 minutes, until softened.
4
Preheat the grill or a large skillet over high heat. Pat the steaks dry and season liberally with salt and pepper. Grill the steaks for 3 to 4 minutes per side to sear, then lower the heat to medium and cook until an instant-read thermometer reaches 130°F for rare, 140°F for medium rare and 150°F for medium-well. 
5
Transfer the grilled steaks to a cutting board, let rest for 5-10 minutes, then slice against the grain.
6
Combine all of the vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl and season to taste.
7
Divide the mashed potatoes between plates. Top with steak, roasted corn and fennel and tomato vinaigrette.
