Alternatively, cook beef on BBQ grill for 2-3 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking.
Ingredients
Jasmine Rice
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 3 cups water
Thai Dressing
- 2 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons chopped coriander leaves and stalks
- 3 tablespoons chopped mint leaves
Beef Salad
- 600g beef rump steaks (at room temperature)
- 1 capsicum
- ½ iceberg lettuce
- ½ red onion
- ½ telegraph cucumber
- 1 carrot
To Serve
- 100g crispy noodles
Steps
-
Preheat BBQ grill to high (if using). Prepare herbs. Combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a medium pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Whisk together all Thai dressing ingredients in a shallow bowl and set aside.
-
Pat beef dry and season. When rice is steaming, heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat. Cook beef for 2-3 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered to rest for 5 minutes.
-
While beef cooks, thinly slice capsicum, lettuce, red onion and cucumber and grate carrot. Place in a large bowl and set aside.
-
Once beef has rested, slice thinly against the grain and toss with remaining beef salad ingredients, along with Thai dressing and any resting juices, if desired. Season to taste.
-
To serve, place ¾ cup jasmine rice into each bowl and top with plenty of Thai beef salad and a small handful of crispy noodles.
