Ingredients

• 1 kg dry aged hanger steak (onglet)
• salt
• coconut oil
• olive oil
• 250 g quinoa
• 1 lime
• pineapple curry powder
• 8 leaves mint
• salt
• pepper
• olive oil
• 1 large cucumber
• 1 tablespoon honey mustard
• 250 g Greek yoghurt
• pink pepper
• blue cornflower petals, dried
• salt
• chervil

Steps

1. For the steak, preheat the oven to 100°C. Place an oven rack on the middle rack and place a drainer underneath it. Fry the meat twice on both sides in a pan with a little coconut oil. Remove the meat from the pan and place on the rack to cook in the oven for 1 hour.
2. Peel the cucumber, cut in half and remove the seeds with a small spoon. Then cut the cucumber into approx. 1 cm thick pieces. Cook the cucumber in salted water for approx. 2 minutes to blanch and then place immediately into ice water.
3. Pour the cucumber into a colander over a bowl and shake off excess water. Retain the water for the quinoa. Place the cucumber in a bowl with the mustard, yoghurt, pink pepper, cornflower and a little salt and mix well, then leave to one side.
4. Boil the Quinoa for approx. 10 minutes in cucumber-salted water until cooked through and drain in a colander. Cut the lime into thin slices and quarter them.
5. Put the quinoa, lime pieces, curry powder to taste and some salt and pepper in a bowl. Cut the mint leaves into thin strips and add to the quinoa in the bowl with a little olive oil, mix well. Arrange on a flat plate (see photo), garnish with some fresh chervil and mint.
