METHOD

Make a marinade with honey, Kikkoman soy sauce, sesame oil, sake and chopped ginger. Add a small amount of diced red onion, pepper and 1 grated green Kiwifruit to the mixture and stir together. Put the marinade into a plastic bag with the beef and refrigerate for at least an hour or overnight.

Remove the beef from the bag and remove any excess marinade.

Put a small amount of olive oil into a pan, put sea salt onto the beef and place into pan and cook to your liking. Allow to rest for 2 – 3 minutes.

For the salad add onion and ginger to the reserved marinade, and then add finely sliced spring onion and a bunch of chopped coriander.

Create lettuce cups by cutting an iceberg lettuce in quarters and placing these onto a serving bowl then add a small amount of Japanese mayonnaise on each leaf, top with sliced beef and top with the salad ingredients.
