Instructions

  1. • Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop apple. Thinly slice brown onion.
    • In a small bowl, combine garlic, ginger paste, the soy sauce and the honey.
    • Place beef rump between two sheets of baking paper. Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until slightly flattened (to ensure it's extra tender once cooked). Season with salt and pepper.
    Little cooks: Take charge by combining the ingredients for the sauce!
  2. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion, stirring, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
    • Return pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook beef rump, turning, for 3-6 minutes (depending on thickness), or cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate to rest. Return onion to pan.
    • Add honey-soy mixture and simmer until heated through, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. • While onion mixture is simmering, in a medium bowl, combine Japanese style dressing and a drizzle of olive oil. Add slaw mix, apple and half the mixed sesame seeds. Toss to coat. Set aside.
    • Microwave mini flour tortillas on a plate in 10 second bursts, until heated through.
  4. • Slice beef.
    • Spread each tortilla with mayonnaise. Fill with a helping of sesame slaw and Japanese-style beef.
    • Sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds to serve. Enjoy!
