Ingredients

  • sirloin steak 2
  • mixed leaf salad 100 g
  • sugar 1 tsp
  • extra-virgin olive oil 2 tbsp
  • lemon 1 (juice)
  • ground cumin ½ tsp
  • ground coriander ½ tsp
  • chilli flakes ½ tsp
  • fresh parsley 1 handful (chopped)
  • fresh coriander 1 handful (chopped)
  • mixed chillies 60 g (diced)
  • garlic cloves 1 (crushed)

Method

  • Remember to allow your steak to come to room temperature before cooking and season with sea salt and ground black pepper.
  • BBQ: If you want to try cooking your steak dirty style, you can sear it directly on the charcoal for 2 minutes on each side. Then set up your BBQ for indirect cooking. I like to add a lump of soaked wood for smoke then pop the steak back on the grill until cooked to your liking.
  • Close the lid, cook at 150°C until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 58°C for medium-rare.
  • You can also cook the steak on a regular grill barbecue or using a pan.
  • Pan method: Use a heavy based frying pan for the best results. Heat the pan on a high heat until very hot. Drizzle in a dash of oil. Add the steak to the pan and cook on each side for around 3 minutes, for medium-rare. Rotate every minute for an even crust. Depending on the thickness of your steak and how you like it, you may need to adjust the cooking time.
  • Leave your steak to rest and keep warm before slicing to have it as juicy as possible.
  • To make the zhoug. Deseed and finely dice the mixed chillies. Crush the garlic clove. Finely chop the fresh coriander leaves and stalks and parsley leaves. Juice the lemon.
  • In a bowl combine the spices, herbs and chillies. Stir in the lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
  • Slice the steak and serve drizzled with a generous amount of zhoug and salad leaves
