Instructions
1
Prep
Pat the sirloin dry, season with salt, separate lettuce into cups, slice avocado and shallot, tear mint leaves, chop cilantro, and slice cucumber.
2
Grill
Sear the sirloin on a hot grill pan over high heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side until deep char forms and internal centre remains pink.
3
Rest
Let the beef rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain into thin strips.
4
Toss
Combine the sliced beef, lime juice, fish sauce, shallot, cucumber, mint, cilantro, sesame oil, and gochugaru in a mixing bowl and toss until evenly coated.
5
Finish
Sprinkle toasted rice powder and crushed peanuts over the beef mixture and toss once more so they cling to the meat.
6
Plate
Spoon the beef salad into lettuce cups, tuck an avocado slice into each, and arrange on the plate for eating by hand.
