When Meat Lust got in touch asking me to review some of their sauces, I didn’t hesitate. All their sauces looked incredibly tasty and I found it extremely hard to pick which one to feature a recipe around. There’s the Green Sweet Chilli (which I based this recipe around), BBQ Mop (a smoky BBQ sauce), Buffalo, and Chinese BBQ. You can understand my dilemma, right?
Naturally, all of these delights called out for a meat feast. So being eternally obstinate, I did the opposite and went out of my way to prove that I could come up with something besides wings and ribs. Then the answer came to me: a thai beef salad with a bit of heat and a bit of salt was calling out for a drizzle of that sweet green sauce.
Thai Beef Salad
Ingredients:
8 oz of steak
romaine lettuce
1 cucumber finely sliced
1 red onion, finely sliced
150g cherry tomatoes, cut in halves
1 orange bell pepper, finely sliced
cilantro
peanuts
chopped spring onions
juice of half a lime
green chili dressing (I used Meat Lust’s Green Sweet Chili Sauce)
Instructions:
Take your steak out of the refrigerator and bring it up to room temperature. Heat up a pan and add a dollop of butter. Sear the steak for a minute and a half per side on high heat. Set the steak aside to cool. Once it’s cooled, thinly slice it.
Add your chopped romaine, peppers, red onion, cucumber, tomatoes and lime juice to a large bowl and toss.
Top with cilantro, your thinly sliced beef, peanuts and spring onions.
Finish it off with a drizzle of green chile sauce.
I think Sam’s verdict was “Now THIS is a salad!” I can’t wait to try the other three, after how splendid the Green sauce was!
