Sirloin with Crispy Noodle and Leafy Green Salad

Explore the Asian flavours of this sirloin dish with a crispy noodle and leafy green salad. Drizzle the ginger and soy salad dressing over and it’s ready to be enjoyed.

Sirloin steak seasoned to perfection

Since sirloin is such a lean and tender cut and almost guaranteed to come out delicious any way it’s cooked, we’re keeping it simple when it comes to seasoning the steak. All you need is salt, turmeric, olive oil, and allspice. 

Allspice is a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove flavours. And together with the turmeric, these spices will give the steak a deliciously rich and fragrant flavour.

Edamame Beans

One of the ingredients used for the salad part of the dish is edamame beans. These are actually just immature soybeans and are very popular in East-Asian cuisines.

Edamame beans can be eaten hot or cold, and in this dish, the beans will be blanched and then refreshed with cold water. This is definitely one of the best ways to eat edamame as it keeps the fresh taste and crisp texture.

Edamame beans are high in protein and especially great for vegans and vegetarians. They are also rich in vitamins and minerals like vitamin K and folate.
