Jac and Shaz: Everyone wants to see a Cookbook from us and we are constantly asked for the recipes for dishes that we cook. People have embraced the simple, achievable meals that we present and a great sample of these can be found on beefandlamb.com.au As busy mums, we have always focused on quick, simple and nutritious.
Preparation: 15 minutes
Cooking: 5 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
600g of beef rump steak, trimmed
1 tbsp of olive oil
2 lebanese cucumbers
1 tbsp of white vinegar
4 soft, long (15cm) brown bread rolls
wholegrain mustard
1 avocado - sliced
2 roma tomatoes, sliced
2 cups of shredded iceberg lettuce
chilli sauce, to serve (optional to include)
2. To pickle the cucumbers, cut them into long batons the length of each bread roll. Sprinkle with a little salt and the vinegar and leave to pickle for 10-15 minutes.
3. Open the bread rolls and spread with mustard and avocado. Fill the rolls with salad and top with sliced beef and chilli sauce.
VIETNAMESE BÁNH MÌ: Swap the avocado for coriander. Pickle the carrot instead of the cucumber and add a splash of dressing made with fish sauce, chilli and caster sugar. Use mayonnaise in place of the chilli sauce.
