Chef's Notes


Skip the Marinade – Rub in olive oil and salt instead to save on marinating time.
Cook over Charcoal – For a more authentic taste, cook the steak straight over charcoal and infuse them with a smoky flavour alongside the marinade.
Dipping Sauce – If you’re pressed for time or can’t get fresh coriander or shallots, try it with Vietnamese nuoc mam cham (homemade or bottled). Or for a completely different flavour, try it with go for a sweet and savoury Japanese BBQ sauce (such as okonomiyaki sauce or takoyaki sauce).
Amp Up the Heat – Add more or less chilli flakes to suit your taste. Or add finely sliced bird’s eye chillies (small Thai red chillies) for an extra spicy kick!
Make it into a Salad – Add lettuce leaves, chopped tomato and extra coriander or mint, then spoon the dipping sauce over the top. Toss and serve!
