A delicious salad with flavors inspired from the East. Low carb and packed with flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil plus extra to drizzle
- 2 rump steaks 4.2 oz each (we use Butcher Box meat)
- 1 large cucumber
- Handful mint leaves chopped
- Handful cilantro leaves chopped
- ½ red onion peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 small red chili seeds removed and finely sliced
- 1 lemongrass hard outer leaves removed and minced
- 2 tsp fish sauce
- Pinch sweetener of choice
- 1 lime halved
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan and grill the steaks on both sides until done to your liking. Remove and set aside to rest.
- Use a vegetable peeler to shave long thin ribbons from the length of the cucumber. Place the ribbons into a bowl and add the chopped herbs, sliced onion, chili, and lemongrass.
- Add the fish sauce and a pinch of sweetener. Squeeze over the lime juice and add a dash more fish sauce for saltiness if needed. Drizzle over a little olive oil and toss well to coat. Divide between two bowls.
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve on top of the salad. Enjoy your Thai Beef Salad!
