Alternatively, grill beef and onions on the BBQ for 1-2 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered, to rest for about 5 minutes.
Ingredients
Churrasco Beef Marinade
- Zest and juice of ½ orange
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
- ¼ brown onion, very finely diced
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
Beef Rump Steaks
- 300g beef rump steaks (at room temperature)
- ¼ brown onion, thinly sliced
- Zest and juice of ½ orange
Jasmine Rice
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 1½ cups water
To Serve
- 1 tomato
- ½ Lebanese cucumber
- 50g rocket
- 50g chimichurri
Steps
-
Preheat BBQ grill to high heat (if using). Prepare ingredients. Combine all churrasco beef marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Pat beef dry and cut into 5cm wide pieces. Toss through marinade and set aside, at room temperature, for at least 10 minutes.
-
While beef is marinating, combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat. Cook beef for about 2 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered, to rest for about 5 minutes. Wipe pan clean and return to high heat with a drizzle of oil.
-
Add onion to pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, until tender. Transfer to a medium bowl. Thinly slice tomato and cucumber and place in a large bowl.
-
Add rocket to bowl with tomato and cucumber, and toss with a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. Slice cooked beef thinly and add to bowl with the cooked onions, any resting juices and second measure of orange zest and juice. Season to taste.
-
To serve, place ¾ cup cooked jasmine rice into each bowl and top with churrasco beef and salad. Drizzle over chimichurri.
