SKIRT STEAK WITH LENTIL SALAD

Steps:

• To make the lentil salad, put the water in a large saucepan. Wash the lentils in a colander and add to the saucepan. Add the carrots, bay leaf, thyme and salt. Cover and simmer 20 to 25 minutes. Do not overcook. Drain and remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the mustard, 3/4 cup of oil and the vinegar, onions, tarragon, salt and pepper. Blend well with a wire whisk. Add the lentils and stir. Serve warm, lukewarm or cool.
• To prepare the meat, sprinkle it on both sides with salt and pepper and brush with 1 tablespoon of oil.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet large enough to hold two steaks over high heat, add the steaks and brown them for 3 minutes for medium-rare. Turn and continue cooking until they are thoroughly browned, about 3 minutes more. Remove to a warm platter. Repeat the procedure for the two remaining steaks.
• Pour the fat from the skillet and reduce the heat. Add the butter, garlic and parsley. Cook briefly, stirring. Add any juices from the platter and blend well. Pour the sauce over the steaks and serve with the lentil salad immediately.

MIXED SALAD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Make sure you have enough different greens to provide a salad of varied texture and color. Wash and dry greens thoroughly in a salad spinner. Tear the leaves with your hands; if the leaves are small, use them whole.
• In a large salad bowl, place mustard, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper. Blend well.
• Add the oil in a steady stream, whisking with a wire whisk until well blended. Since vinegar varies greatly in strength, taste to see if the vinaigrette has enough punch. Add more vinegar if necessary.
• Add the greens, toss well with the vinaigrette and serve with the tuna.
