Hot Sour Sweet Salty Beef Salad

Posted on Mon, Jan 09, 2017

A vibrant, flavor-packed salad that hits every taste note - spicy, tangy, sweet, and savory! Tender beef is infused with Cunliffe & Waters' Hot Sour Sweet Salty Sauce, then tossed with crisp vegetables, fresh herbs, and crunchy peanuts. Finished with deep-fried shallots and a squeeze of lime, this salad is the perfect balance of bold flavors and fresh textures. 

Ingredients

  • 1 jar Cunliffe & Waters Hot Sour Sweet Salty Sauce
  • 500g beef fillet (cooked leftovers are perfect for this too)
  • 1 red capsicum, julienned
  • 2 carrots, julienned
  • handful of green beans, sliced and blanched
  • handful of bean shoots
  • handful of rocket or spinach leaves
  • handful of coriander leaves
  • handful of roasted unsalted peanuts
  • handful of deep fried shallots
  • 1 lime, quartered to garnish

Method

  1. Take a jar of Hot Sour Sweet Salty Sauce and gently pour the oil at the top of the jar over the fillet of beef and rub thoroughly. Fry the fillet on a high heat and brown all over, then finish roasting in the oven. Cool and slice.
  2. If using leftover beef, slice thinly and pour about half a jar of the Hot Sour Sweet Salty Sauce over the meat and let sit for at least half an hour.
  3. To the sliced beef, add the vegetables, coriander and peanuts and combine thoroughly (way more fun when you use your hands for this bit).
  4. Place on one big salad plate or divide into 4-6 servings. Sprinkle with deep fried shallots and serve with lime wedges.
