Indian spiced minute steak

Background
Minute steaks are really popular now Β as they are cheaper than sirloin and fillet steak yet can be just as tender. It really takes just couple of minutes to grill/fry/bbq them β but I find that tenderising the steak with a rub or marinade stops the meat becoming rubbery. This spiced minute steak has an Indian-flavoured rub - the longer you rest it in the marinade, the more tender the meat will be. Serve it with a salad or grilled vegetables.
Ingredients
- 1 large minute beef steak
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- Β½ tsp peppercorn
- 1 pinch of chilli flakes ( can be doubled)
- ΒΌ tsp turmeric powder
- 1 large garlic clove
- 1 large pinch of course salt
- 1.5 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- Dry-roast the cumin seeds and peppercorns in a frying pan until fragrant. Transfer to a mortar and let them cool, then grind with a pestle.
- Add the other ingredients and pound to a coarse paste.
- Pat-dry the steak and rub it with the marinade. Chill or rest until youβre ready to grill/BBQ/griddle it.
- Heat the BBQ/grill or griddle pan. Sear the steak on each side, then flip over every 30 seconds. Cook it to your liking - it should not take more than 5 minutes.
- Rest for a few minutes before slicing.
