Radishes, soy sauce and mustard give this healthy salad an Asian-inspired flavor punch.

Ingredients:

  • 10 ounces beef rump steak
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce, plus a dash for dressing
  • 1 bunch of radishes
  • 1 head of lettuce
  • 1 bunch fresh mint
  • 6 tablespoons grape seed oil
  • 1 tablespoon mustard

  1. Sear the rump steak in a hot pan for 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to low and deglaze the pan with the soy sauce, stirring up browned bits from the bottom as you add the soy.
  2. Let steak rest for 5 minutes, then cut into thin slices.
  3. Wash the radishes, lettuce leaves and mint.
  4. Cut the radishes into thin slices. Tear the lettuce into bite-size pieces and cut the mint leaves into slivers.
  5. Prepare a salad dressing by mixing the grape seed oil with the mustard and a dash of soy sauce.
  6. Place the lettuce and mint leaves in 4 large, deep plates.
  7. Add the radishes and the beef, and then top with the dressing.
