Beef-and-lettuce wraps with sweet chilli sauce

By Phillippa Cheifitz

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

500 g fillet steak
Teriyaki sauce, for coating
Peanut oil
Soft lettuce leaves, for wrapping
Sweet chilli sauce, for serving
Steamed fragrant rice, for serving

Method

Slice the steak thinly. If the slices seem large, cut in half or even into thirds. Coat with the sauce.
Just before serving, sear in batches in a lightly oiled non-stick pan – it takes seconds.
At the table, wrap the seared steak in the lettuce leaves then dip the parcels in the sauce.
Enjoy a mouthful of warm, fluffy rice every now and again, between beef parcels.

TASTE’s take:
This recipe is Korean inspired. Traditionally the meat is seared on a flat grill, but this variation is a fusion of Asian flavours – easy to put together and very enjoyable.
