Thai Beef Salad Bowl
There’s nothing more refreshing than this Thai beef salad on a hot summer evening. With as much or as little chilli heat as you wish, and really showcasing the beef, it is a great way to shake up your salad game!
Showcase the sirloin steak
Sirloin steak can hold up to all sorts of flavouring, and this is a prime example. The tender beef is given lots of umami from the fish sauce, and a nice bite from the black pepper.
Serving it medium rare keeps it tender and delicious for this vibrant summer salad. The mint and coriander add the fragrance needed for any Thai salad. The crunch of the cucumber and zing of the chilli combine beautifully – there is no doubt this is a very satisfying salad!
