Ingredients

1 Co-op Irresistible British Hereford sirloin steak

Juice of ½ lemon

1 tbsp Co-op light soy sauce

1 small garlic clove, crushed

1 large mango, sliced into thin strips

2 Co-op vine ripened tomatoes, halved and sliced

1 small red onion, finely sliced

1 red chilli, finely sliced (leave seeds in for heat, if you like)

2 tbsp chopped coriander

1 tbsp Co-op vegetable oil

30g Co-op cashew nuts, roughly chopped;

Method

Put the beef, lemon juice, soy sauce and garlic in a shallow bowl, along with a generous grinding of black pepper

Mix well to combine and leave to marinate while you prepare the mango salad

Combine the mango, tomato, onion, chilli and most of the coriander in a bowl, then divide between 2 plates

Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over a high heat

Add the nuts and toast for 2 mins, or until golden. Remove from the pan, leaving the oil behind, and roughly chop

Take the steak out of the marinade, then add to the pan

Cook for 3-4 mins per side for medium-rare, or according to your preference

Add the marinade to the pan for the final 30 seconds of cooking time

Remove the steak from the pan and leave to rest before slicing into thin strips

To serve, top the mango salad with the steak and drizzle over the marinade from the pan, then garnish with the chopped cashews and the reserved coriander
