This Naked Steak Sanga is a great way to eat your steak! Packed full of veggies, this one certainly covers everything!  

Servings: 2
Preparation: 10 mins
Cooking: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus 1 teaspoon extra.
  • 1 small (100g) red onion, finely sliced.
  • 1 sprig thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme).
  • 2 x 125g sustainable beef steaks (see note below).
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to season.
  • 2 slices sourdough bread.
  • 1 tablespoon full-fat mayonnaise.
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
  • 1 medium (200g) beetroot, grated.
  • 1 cup rocket leaves.
  • 1 tablespoon Homemade Sauerkraut.

Directions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and thyme. Cover and cook, stirring often for 15 minutes or until soft and lightly golden. Uncover and cook for a further 3 minutes. Remove thyme sprig and set aside.

2. In last 3 minutes of onion cooking, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Rub steaks with extra oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes each side, or until cooked to your liking. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 2 minutes. Cut into thick slices.

3. Meanwhile, toast 1 slice of bread. Combine mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread toasted bread with half of the mayonnaise mixture. Top with half the caramelised onion, 1/2 cup rocket, 1 steak, half of the beetroot, and half of the Sauerkraut.

4. Pack remaining ingredients away to construct sandwich for lunch tomorrow.


Note

We always suggest using sustainable cuts of meat; hanger, oyster blade and flank are all good options. You can cook the steak on a barbeque if you prefer.

Gluten-free option: You can use gluten-free bread if you prefer.

Paleo option: Give the bread a miss altogether and enjoy ingredients as a meal on its own, or if you like you can roast a large field mushroom and serve it as a bread alternative.

This recipe would also taste nice with our Eggplant Chutney.
