Ingredients
  • 162.7 g Lean beef flank steak
  • 160.4 g Rice, white, long-grain, cooked
  • 128.3 g Broccoli, raw (for side)
  • 9.6 g Palm sugar (for marinade/sauce)
  • 1.3 tbsp (approx 10 g) Olive oil (for sear/sauce)
Method
  1. 01Marinate the flank steak in a mixture of fish sauce, crushed cilantro root, and a pinch of palm sugar for at least 30 minutes.
  2. 02Prepare the Jaew dipping sauce: Combine toasted rice powder, dried chili flakes, fish sauce, lime juice, and a small amount of palm sugar in a small bowl. The sauce should be punchy, spicy, and tart.
  3. 03Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare, letting the exterior develop a deep, charred crust.
  4. 04Remove the steak and let it rest on a warm plate for 8-10 minutes. Resting is essential for the juices to redistribute.
  5. 05While the meat rests, steam the broccoli until bright green and just tender.
  6. 06Slice the steak against the grain into thin, bite-sized strips.
  7. 07Plate the warm, cooked long-grain rice alongside the grilled steak and broccoli.
  8. 08Serve with a generous drizzle of the Jaew dipping sauce over the beef. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.
