Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Bring a large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
- Pull out a large frying pan, a medium bowl, a small bowl, a sieve & a grater
Get started
- Remove the steaks from the fridge and allow to come to room temperature. Season both sides with salt and pepper
- Add the rice to the saucepan and boil for 30-35 mins, until cooked, then drain
- Meanwhile, zest and halve the limes
- Trim and thinly slice the radishes and place into the medium bowl with the juice from 1 lime and a pinch of salt. Leave to pickle
Make the sauce & finish the prep
- Deseed and finely dice the chilli
- In the small bowl, mix together the tamari, honey, juice from the remaining lime, half the ginger & garlic paste, 2 tsp olive oil and half the chilli (for those who'd like the heat)
- Dice the cucumber into 1cm chunks. Thinly slice the spring onions
Get sizzlin'
- Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and cook (as a guide: cook for 2-3 mins on each side for medium, or 3-4 mins for medium-well)
- Quickly sear the edges of the steaks, then remove from the pan. Leave to rest. Rinse and dry the pan
Rice time
- Reheat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the spring onion and remaining ginger & garlic paste and cook for 2-3 mins
- Add the cooked rice and stir to combine
- Remove from the heat, allow to cool to room temperature (optional), then mix in the lime zest and a pinch of salt and pepper
Plate up
- Thinly slice the avocado for garnish. Slice the steaks against the grain
- Serve into bowls, arranging the steaks, rice, cucumber, pickled radish, avocado and rocket into sections. Drizzle over the sauce
- Garnish with the remaining diced chilli (for those who'd like the heat) and the sesame seeds
