Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips.
Rinse the potato strips under cold water to remove excess starch, then dry them thoroughly with a clean towel.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 175°C (350°F).
Fry the potatoes in batches for about 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
Cook the French Onions:
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring frequently, for about 20-25 minutes until caramelized and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Cook the Ribeye Steaks:
Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper.
Heat a heavy skillet or grill pan over high heat.
Cook steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer to your preferred doneness. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes after cooking.
Serve
Place the steak on a plate, top with a generous serving of caramelized onions, and serve alongside crispy French fries. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
