Method

  1. Heat a large deep frying pan with a little oil. Add the onions and fry over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften, then add the corn and pak choi. Fry for 5 minutes, then add the curry paste and cook for a minute more. The veg should still be crunchy. Turn the heat to very low and stir in the coconut milk and fish sauce (if it’s too hot the light coconut milk may split).
  2. Meanwhile, heat a medium frying pan with a little oil over a high heat, season the steaks and fry for 2½ minutes on each side (for medium-rare to medium). Rest for 5 minutes.
  3. Once the sauce has warmed through, stir in the lime juice and coriander, then season. Add more fish sauce for extra depth and chilli oil for spice, if you want to. Slice the steaks and stir them in with their juices. Serve with steamed rice.
