SALAD DAYS

Beef salad

■ Serves 2 (easily doubled) ■ Prep 15 mins ■ Cook 5 mins

300g rump steak, trimmed of fat
 2 tsp groundnut oil
 1 lime, juiced
 1 red chilli, deseeded and sliced
 1 tbsp light brown soft sugar
 85g bag baby leaf salad
 140g beansprouts, blanched
 140g red grapes, halved

1 Rub the steak with 1 tsp of the oil and season. Fry in a hot pan for 2-21/2 mins each side (depending on thickness) for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 5 mins.

2 Make the dressing by mixing the lime juice, chilli, sugar and remaining oil in a bowl. Set aside until the sugar dissolves.

3 Divide the salad leaves, beansprouts and grapes between two serving bowls. Thinly slice the steak and add the juices to the dressing. Drizzle this over the salads, toss with the steak and serve immediately.
