Lemongrass Manado Steak

{{totalReview}}
Tenderloin is always my go-to cut of beef because it can be dressed up in many different ways. For a festive occasion, you can't go wrong with a Manado-style steak. Marinated in a mix of aromatic ingredients like lemongrass, galangal, ginger, lime leaves, garlic and shallots, it is then cooked sous vide before being seared to get a lovely char. Top it off with homemade Sambal Matah, a traditional Balinese sambal with a distinct flavor profile that is associated with comfort food for many Indonesians. A perfect blend of East meets West, this keto-friendly meal offers an Asian twist to your dinner table this holiday season.

  3. Sear steak

    • On a hot pan with ghee, sear all the sides of the steak until it’s charred nicely, but do not overcook since the meat is already cooked.
    • Let the beef rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
    • Sauté the remaining marinade to serve as sauce for the beef.
