Ingredients

Instructions

1. Marinate the trimmed, 1-inch cubed sirloin with the sugar, salt, black pepper and minced garlic for at least an hour at room temperature, or overnight in the fridge.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and sear it on all sides, shaking the pan, until medium-rare. This takes no more than 2-3 minutes in total. Move the beef to a bowl.
3. In the same empty skillet, melt the butter. Add the onion and minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
4. Add the soy sauce, fish sauce, honey, rice vinegar and sugar. Simmer the mixture for about 2-3 minutes.
5. Return the seared beef to the skillet and toss until well coated in the sauce.
6. Arrange the beef and sauce over a bed of lettuce, watercress, tomatoes and/or cucumbers.
7. Stir together the lime juice, salt and black pepper to make the optional dipping sauce, and serve it alongside the beef and rice.
