Thai-style Surf and Turf


This meal was intended to be Thai Beef Salad, but I got lazy halfway through and decided to just make it into Surf and Turf. For anyone who doesn't know what that means, it's steak and prawns. As a side I made a simple salad with some of the ingredients that were to be in the original salad. The steaks were cooked Medium-Rare with 1 minute flips on each side, and were quite juicy. I'd bought decent quality meat so it ended up as quite the tasty meal. The meat and prawns were marinated in a Thai style sauce I made using lime juice, sweet chilli sauce, fish sauce, peanut oil, brown sugar and coriander, and was quite piquant in taste. We used our new Tefal pan and it was incredible how easy cleaning it was afterwards - no more cheap frypan for me :D

  1. Nice!

    You know, I'd totally believe that most "fusion cuisine" was invented by chefs who changed their minds halfway through cooking and wound up on a totally different continent to the one they were aiming for.

  2. As if that isn't what they do. You've cracked the whole industry open! Scandal!
