Ingredients
 | 4 |
|---|---|
| 4 | beef steak (approx. 800g) |
| 20 ml | olive oil |
| 1-2 tablespoons | mustard |
| 150 - 200 g | rocket |
| Balsamic vinegar or wine vinegar | |

| 1 tablespoon | Vegeta Beef Stock Powder |
Preparation
Traditional preparation (marinating for 2-3 days)
- Spread the mustard all over the beef steak and then place in a porcelain or glass dish. Cover with olive oil and let stand for approximately 2-3 days, in the fridge, covered with cling or foil wrap.
- Before cooking, cut the meat in to 4 slices. Score each of the slices, but not all the way through and then open (much like an open book shape).
Quicker preparation (marinating for 2 hours)
- Slice the meat in to 4 slices. Score each of the slices, but not all the way through and then open (much like an open book shape).
- Then spread each slice with mustard, cover with oil and let stand covered, in the fridge for about 2 hours.
- Then continue with the preparation, in the same way.
- Sprinkle the meat slices with Vegeta Beef Stock Powder and let stand in the oil for further 10 minutes. This time, can be used to prepare and warm up the BBQ plate.
- Place the steak on the oiled, hot plate and cook 3-4 minutes each side, or as desired.
- While the steaks are cooking wash and prepare the salad. Simply sprinkle balsamic vinegar over the salad and divide on to the serving plates. When the meat is cooked, it can be arranged on top of the salad leaves.
Serving
Sprinkle some pepper and serve.
Tip
This meal can also be made using a pan with a thicker bottom.
