Instructions
1
Prep
Mince the lemongrass, garlic, and beef sirloin into thin strips. Combine beef with minced lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce, and brown sugar in a bowl, tossing to coat evenly.
2
Marinate
Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes until the lemongrass flavor penetrates the meat.
3
Prep
While beef marinates, julienne the carrot and daikon, toss with rice vinegar and sugar, and set aside to soften, about 15 minutes.
4
Sear
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat until shimmering. Sear the beef in a single layer for 2–3 minutes per side until charred and just cooked through.
5
Fry
Reduce heat to medium. Fry the egg for 2–3 minutes until whites set and yolk edges are lacy but center remains jammy.
6
Prep
Slice cucumber. Whisk lime juice, fish sauce, minced garlic, sliced chili, and 2 tablespoons water until combined. Chop cilantro and tear mint.
7
Plate
Spoon rice into a bowl, top with beef, egg, edamame, pickled vegetables, and cucumber. Scatter cilantro and mint over top, drizzle with dressing.
