Ingredients:
  • 700g-piece lean beef eye fillet, trimmed of excess fat and sinew
  • 40.00 ml mirin*
  • 21.00 gm dark soy sauce
  • 400g daikon
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, halved lengthways, thickly sliced on the diagonal
  • 165.00 ml mint leaves

  • 42.00 gm light soy sauce
  • 40.00 ml rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp mirin*
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C. Cut the beef fillet in half lengthwise, poke holes all over with a knife, and place in a bowl. Mix in the mirin and dark soy sauce until well coated.
  • Roast the beef on a rack over a roasting pan for 18-20 minutes for rare or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  • For the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk until well blended.
