Steps:
- Gather your ingredients.
- For the potatoes: Quarter the potatoes. Place potatoes and garlic, crushed away from skins, in a pot. Cover with cold water, cover and bring to a boil. When they boil, remove the lid, salt the water and cook to tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and rice into pot using a food mill or ricer.
- Meanwhile, warm half-n-half or milk and butter in a small pot over medium-low heat. Finely chop the scallions, whites and greens.
- For the steaks: Coarsely grind the peppercorns in mortar with pestle. Pat steaks dry, season with kosher salt and rub with peppercorn mixture. Let stand 10 minutes.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Peel and finely chop the shallots. Peel ginger with tip of a teaspoon and have a fine grater on hand. Crush the garlic and discard skins and root.
- To skillet add EVOO, 1 turn of the pan, and melt in 1 tablespoon butter. Add steaks and cook 2 to 3 minutes to brown. Flip and cook 2 minutes more. Remove to platter. Add 2 tablespoons butter and when it foams add the shallots, garlic and grate in the ginger. Stir a minute or 2, then add sherry or cognac or brandy, stir, and add bone broth. Reduce by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Finish with creme fraiche to taste. Add beef back to pan and turn to warm in the sauce.
- Add hot milk and scallions to potatoes and season with salt and white pepper to taste.
- Place steaks on plates, top with sauce and cress and scallion potatoes alongside.

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes, rinse in cold water and cut into fourths. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the butter to a saucepan over medium heat. Allow the butter to brown, 2 to 3 minutes, being careful not to burn it. Swirl the pan as you go, stopping when the solids turn medium to deep golden brown.
- Drain the potatoes, then return them to the pot. With the burner on low heat, mash the potatoes with a potato masher; the more steam that's released while you mash, the better. Mash for about 5 minutes. Turn off the burner.
- Add the cream cheese, half-and-half, cream, some salt and pepper and three-quarters of the brown butter to the pot and stir to combine. If the mixture needs thinning, add some milk. Check the seasonings, adding salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the remaining brown butter over the top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Tips:
- Use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes: These varieties are best for mashing because they have a high starch content, which makes them fluffy and smooth.
- Peel the potatoes before boiling: This will help the potatoes cook more evenly and prevent the skins from toughening.
- Boil the potatoes in salted water: This will help to flavor the potatoes and prevent them from becoming bland.
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly: This will help to prevent the potatoes from becoming watery.
- Mash the potatoes with a potato ricer: This will give you the smoothest, creamiest mashed potatoes.
- Add the brown butter and scallions last: This will help to keep the brown butter from burning and the scallions from becoming too wilted.
- Season the mashed potatoes to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings as desired.
Conclusion:
Brown butter and scallion mashed potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are creamy, flavorful, and have a hint of nuttiness from the brown butter.
