Zingy Thai flavours perk up a steak sandwich for a perfect brunch or lunch.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
- 1 lime, juice only
- large pinch caster sugar
- 2 steaks (such as sirloin, ribeye, bavette), approx. 175g/6oz each
- 4 ciabatta rolls (fresh or bake-at-home variety)
- Japanese-style mayonnaise, to serve
For the salad
- 1 small carrot, peeled and cut into very thin batons
- 2 large spring onions, shredded
- ½ Little Gem lettuce, shredded
- small handful fresh coriander, leaves only, roughly chopped
- ½ small red chilli, thinly sliced (optional)
Method
-
Whisk together the fish sauce, chilli sauce, lime juice and sugar. Place the steaks in a large plastic food bag and add most of the marinade, reserving 1½ tablespoons to dress the salad. Seal the bag and leave the steaks to marinate in the fridge for at least an hour, or preferably overnight.
-
To make the salad, mix all the ingredients together with the reserved dressing.
-
Bake the ciabatta rolls according to the packet instructions, or, if using fresh, gently warm in a low oven.
-
Meanwhile, heat a large griddle pan over a very high heat. Cook the steaks for a few minutes on each side, until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
-
Halve the ciabatta rolls and spread generously with mayonnaise.
-
Trim any excess fat off the steaks and slice thinly. Divide between the four rolls, top with the salad, and serve immediately.
