  Put the potato chips a few minutes in the microwave before putting them in the oven. This will reduce there cooking time and energy costs

  The chips were gorgeous but I found the butter heart (yes I did make heart shapes, it is valentines after all!!) made the whole dish a bit too greasy for me. It also seems it bit wasteful to make 50g of the chilli butter just to cut out 2 tiny heart shapes. I will definitely make the chips again, I may even stop buying oven chips altogether!

  I know it's past valentines, but I might try this still, but is it ok to add in a bit more chilli in the butter since my partner loves spicy food, or would it just overpower the flavor?

  Pirate Harri, use a bit of Garlic instead then. I have a block of garlic butter made this way in the freezer all the time and it works very well.

  Didn't do the butter as we didn't have any chilli in but the steak and the chips were truly superb! Better than a lot of meals we have had in restaurants and so much cheaper. We shared a ribeye as they tend to be big anyway. Also, we served this with the spring greens with lemon and garlic as a side and it went perfectly with the dish. A definite favourite and will be using this again.

  Made this tonight for Sunday tea, but added a little chilli oil to pan instead of making chilli butter. It was delicious and everyone enjoyed!!!
