How about a roast beef barbecue salad? This is a great outdoor BBQ menu idea for a light Sunday lunch but it's not just any old salad, there’s Thailand stamped all over this one.
It’s spicy, it’s healthy, it’s delicious! But don’t just take my word for it, get the coals good and hot and try this lunch time delight.
And don’t just stick with the vegetables that I’ve used for the salad, with this one anything goes so there’s no excuses! This quantity will serve four so feel free to adapt dependent on numbers.
Ingredients:-
2 8oz 225 g Steaks
½ cucumber cut into matchsticks
2 carrots cut into matchsticks
1 lemongrass stalk cut into stips
2 tablespoons chopped spring onions
juice of 2 limes
1 tablespoon thai fish sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
2 red chillies chopped
Chopped coriander to garnish
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Method:-
Chop your veg and build the base of your salad. Mix together the lime juice, sauces, honey and chillies to make the “drizzle”.
Hot coals on the barbecue and grill the beef steaks for a couple of minutes on each side then take a sharp knife and slice as thinly as possible. Lay the steak on the salad base and drizzle.
Finish off with a sprinkling of chopped fresh coriander and the toasted sesame seeds and you’ve got a great Thai roast beef barbecue salad. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
