Thai Beef Salad

Zubereitung

1. 01
   Schritt 1Season the steak

   Salt the hanger steak generously. For best results, salt it a day in advance and let it sit uncovered in the refrigerator overnight to season from within and dry the outside for a better crust.

   Hinweis

   If you don't have time, salting 30 minutes before cooking still helps.
