Ingredients

  • 1pcs Lebanese cucumber
  • 1pcs tomato
  • 2pcs beef rump steaks
  • 10g Greek seasoning
  • 2pcs wholemeal bread rolls
  • 20g sunflower seeds
  • 50g baby spinach leaves
  • 23ml olive oil
  • 5ml red or white wine vinegar
  • 1pinch small pinch of sugar

Method

  1. Step 1 — Prep ingredients
    Preheat the oven to 220C, fan-forced. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Coarsely chop the cucumber and tomato. Put the steaks, 1½ tsp Greek seasoning and 2 tsp olive oil in a bowl and turn to coat.
  2. Step 2 — Bake croutons
    Coarsely tear the rolls into 3cm chunks and put on the lined tray. Drizzle with 2 tsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Bake for 6 mins or until golden.
  3. Step 3 — Cook seeds and steaks
    Meanwhile, put the sunflower seeds in a cold medium frypan over medium heat. Toast, tossing, for 2-3 mins until evenly golden. Remove from the pan. Return the pan to high heat until hot (see Cooking tip). Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook the steaks for 2-3 mins each side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the pan and rest for 3 mins.
  4. Step 4 — Make salad
    Put 1 tsp Greek seasoning*, 2 tsp olive oil, 1 tsp red wine vinegar and a small pinch of sugar in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the cucumber, tomato and spinach and gently toss to combine.
  5. Step 5 — Serve up
    Slice the steaks (see Cooking tip). Divide the salad among bowls, then top with the steak and scatter with the sunflower seeds and croutons. Enjoy!
  6. Step 6 — Make it yours
    If you have any olives or capers, toss some through the salad for a salty bite.
