Prep time: 20 minutes
+ 30 minutes freezing
+ 2 hours marinating
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Serves 4-6

Barbecued Beef Ingredients:

500g scotch fillet or sirloin steak
2 garlic cloves, chopped finely
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup shoshoyu (Japanese soy sauce)
3 spring onions, chopped finely
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp oil

Barbecued Beef Cooking Instructions:

1. Freeze the steak for 30 minutes to make it easy to slice thinly. Dry-fry the sesame seeds over low heat for 3-4 minutes. Shake the pan gently until seeds are golden. Remove seeds from the pan and allow to cool. Grind in a food processor or with a mortar and pestle.

2. Slice the steak into thin strips, cutting across the grain. Combine meat, shoshoyu, garlic, spring onion and half of the crushed seeds in a bowl. Toss until the meat is well coated with the sauce. Cover and marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.

3. Combine the two oils and brush some on the cast iron grill pan, heavy-based frying pan or barbecue plate. Heat to a very hot level and cook the meat in batches. Sear each side for about 1 minute (don’t overcook). Oil and reheat the grill between batches. Serve steak with the remaining crushed seeds and with pickled cabbage or Kim Chi.
