Cooking Time: 10-15 mins
Serves 4






4 lean beef steaks (600g) 1 tablespooon canola oil
salsa 1 small cucumber, chopped
1 large tomato, peeled and diced 1 small Spanish onion, diced
1/2 yellow capsicum, diced 4 tablespoons chopped coriander
1 teaspoon seeded mustard


1 Prepare a salsa by combining ingredients.
2 Heat a heavy based pan on high. Brush oil onto both sides of steak. To seal, cook steak 2-3 mins each side. Turn when juices appear on uncooked side.
3 Note: steak thickness determines cooking time. As a guide: rare, remove after sealing; reduce heat to medium and cook an extra 2-3 mins each side; Well Done, 4-6 mins each side.
4 Test steak by pressing with tongs. rare feels springy. Medium has some resistance. Well done feels quite firm.
5 Remove from heat, rest for one minute before serving. Serve with salsa and roasted potato wedges.
