Thai Beef Salad

October 29, 2012 | Alison Clinch | Grass Fed Beef, Newsletter, Recipes | Leave a Comment

I’ve been working on this salad for awhile and am now satisfied that it tastes just like a great version I used to get at a Thai restaurant in Crows Nest many years ago. (serves 4).

Ingredients:

650g of Grass Fed Rump or New York steak
Olive oil for brushing
3 cups salad greens
2 tomatoes, cut into 8ths
1/2 telegraph cucumber, sliced
2 red onions, sliced
2 larged chillies, shredded
2/3 cup basil
2/3 cup coriander
2/3 cup mint Dressing
1 tsp soy sauce
2 tbsps fish sauce
Juice of two limes
2 tbsps brown sugar

Method:

Preheat BBQ or frying pan and brush steak with olive oil. Cook steak for a few minutes each side (this dish is best served medium rare) and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Toss the salad greens, tomatoes, cucumber, onions, chilli, basil, coriander and mint together in a bowl.
Combine soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice and sugar.
Slice the beef into thin strips and place on the salad. Pour dressing over the top.
