Equipment

  • Chef Knives
  • Chopping board
  • measuring/weighing utensils
  • mixing bowl x 2
  • BBQ/grill pan
  • whisk

Ingredients

  • 800 g bavette steak
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • salt

Dressing

  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
  • 150 ml olive oil
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp cold water
  • salt

Salad

  • 300 g broccoli
  • 300 g brussel sprouts
  • 250 g pear
  • 100 ml olive oil
  • salt
  • 50 g raisins

Instructions

Steak

  • Remove steak 30 minutes prior to cooking (prepare dressing & salad ingredients)
  • Heat BBQ to 300c
  • Rub steak in olive oil and season generously with salt
  • Sear for 3-4 minutes per side or until internal temperature is 52c. Rest on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes before slicing

Dressing

  • Crush garlic and mix all ingredients together EXCEPT oil & water
  • Gradually whisk the oil into the mixture
  • Once combined whisk in the cold water to thin it out, taste and adjust seasoning

Salad

  • Slice the sprouts thinly
  • Cut the broccoli into small florets
  • Chop the pear into matchsticks – no need to peel the pear
  • Using ½ the oil frying the sprouts for 3 minutes on medium/high heat – remove and do the same for the broccoli florets
  • Allow to cool until the steak has rested and then add raisins, pear and toss in salad dressing – add ½ the dressing initially, taste and add more as necessary

Notes

Tips/Tricks

  • ALWAYS allow your steak to rest before slicing – this allows the juices to redistribute and makes for a tastier steak
  • bavette/flap and flank steak tend to require a little more time to rest. This salad is meant to be served only slightly warm so don’t worry about the steak cooling
  • if cooking in a pan then sear the steak for 2-3 minutes per side and finish in the oven for a further 2-3 minutes or until temperature is 52c for medium rare
