Method
- Place the steaks in a shallow dish. Mix together the lime juice, soy sauce, garlic and chilli flakes. Season with freshly ground black pepper, cover and leave to marinate for 1 hr.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle until very hot. Add the steaks and cook for 4-6 mins on each side. Remove and leave to rest for 15 mins.
- Toss together the spring onions, radishes, bean sprouts, cucumber, tomatoes and salad leaves. Mix together all the dressing ingredients, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Slice the warm steak thinly across the grain. Toss gently into the salad with the dressing. Pile into a large, shallow dish and serve immediately or leave to cool and serve chilled.
