Ingredients
- 1 kg ribeye steak, cut into thin strips
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Marinade
- 1 stalk lemongrass, finely sliced
- 75 ml liquid seasoning
- 75 ml fish sauce
- 4 cloves garlic
- Pinch sugar
- 100 ml vegetable oil
Salsa verde
- 3 jalapenos
- ½ brown onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 8 tomatillos from a can
- 1 lime, juice
- ½ bunch coriander, leaves roughly chopped
- Pinch salt
Asian herb salad
- 4 sprigs coriander, leaves picked
- 2 sprigs Vietnamese mint, leaves picked
- 2 sprigs Thai basil, leaves picked
- 3 spring onion, finely sliced on the diagonal
- ½ lime, juice
- 1 tsp fish sauce
To serve
- 12 corn tortillas, warmed
Marinating time: 30 mins
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients for the marinade to a food processor and blitz until it forms a chunky paste. Coat the rib eye in the marinade, set aside for 30 minutes.
- Preheat a heavy grill pan over high heat. Add jalapenos, onion and garlic to the dry pan and char for 5 minutes on all sides.
- Roughly chop the charred vegetables and add to a food processor with tomatillos, lime juice, coriander and salt. Pulse until all of the ingredients have come together as a chunky sauce. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
- Heat a large frypan over high heat. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil followed by the beef. Space the beef out in the pan, don't stir it yet - allow it to caramelise. Once the sides of the meat begin to go brown, give it a toss in the pan, spread out and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Combine all of the herbs in a bowl and dress with fish sauce and lime juice.
- Warm the tortillas in a hot pan for 20 seconds on each side. This is just to warm and soften the tortillas, they don't need to be crispy.
- Place the warmed tortillas on your serving plate. Divide the meat between the tortillas and top with generous spoonfuls of salsa verde and the Asian herb salad.
