Griddled sourdough with steak, marinated radish and avocado

Serves: 2

Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

MARINATED RADISH
5 radishes, thinly sliced
juice of 1 lemon
30ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
2,5ml (½ tsp) salt
STEAK
200g sirloin
olive or avocado oil, for frying
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
TO SERVE
2 slices sourdough bread, griddled
1 ripe avocado, thinly sliced

Instructions

For the marinated radish, combine the ingredients in a bowl and allow to marinate for up to 1 day but at least for 30 minutes.

To cook the steak, rub the sirloin with olive oil and season. Cook in a hot griddle pan until medium-rare, 4 – 5 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and allow to rest for 10 minutes.

Slice the steak into thin slices and place on top of the griddled sourdough. Add slices of avocado, marinated radish and pea shoots, and serve immediately.
