Snake Gourd Salad

  1. Simply mix all ingredients together and give it a toss.
  2. Chefs tip – when slicing the snake gourd, place in a bowl of ice-cold water. This will firm it.

  2. Then, season the steak with a touch of salt and pepper and drizzle on a little vegetable oil.
  3. Place the steak on the grill and char it for 2 minutes each side.
  4. Place in the oven on 180°C for 4 minutes.
  5. Rest the meat for another 4 minutes before you slice.
