5) With a strainer, remove the fried potatoes and place them on a paper towel. Allow to cool.
6) Dice the potato slices into 1/4 inch pieces.
7) In another skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil and saute onions, paprika and salt for 6 to 8 minutes over medium flame.
8) In a large ovenproof pan, melt butter and add the potatoes and onion mixture. Saute them together on medium-high till they brown well. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast for about 15 minutes until crisp.
9) Season the steaks with salt and pepper and grill for 6 to 8 minutes on either side.
