- 2 tsp.
ground cumin
4 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1
small red onion, finely chopped
Large bunch coriander, finely chopped
- 1
red chilli, finely chopped
Juice of 2 limes
- 200 ml
(7 fl oz (⅓ pint)) olive oil
- 1
(2lb 5oz) flat iron, flank or rump steak, trimmed
- Step 1
Place all the ingredients except the steak into a large mixing bowl. Add seasoning and mix well. Spoon half the mixture into a small serving jug or bowl and set aside to serve with the meat once it is cooked.
- Step 2
Place steak in the remaining mixture and toss well to coat. Cover and set in the fridge to marinate for at least an hour, or overnight if possible.
- Step 3
Heat a griddle pan or barbecue to high. Remove steak from the marinade and discard the liquid. Pat dry, season and sear for 2min on each side for rare, 2½min on each side for medium or 3min on each side for well done. Rest the meat on a serving board for 10min before slicing thickly. Serve with the salsa.
Steak
Timings for cooking steak vary depending on the thickness of your meat, but ask your butcher to cut steaks 2½cm (1in) thick if you can. Buy flat iron, flank or rump for good marbling of fat and the best flavour.
