2. Meanwhile, whisk together: fish sauce, lime juice, vegetable oil, 1 tsp (5 mL) miso paste, chili flakes and sugar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3. Toss with: romaine, red pepper, orange wedges, peanuts and cilantro leaves. Slice beef steak and top salad.

Pantry Pointers
Miso Paste: The magic of miso is FLAVOUR! This condiment is a pantry staple in Japanese cuisine. Made from fermented soybeans, its rich sweet-salty nuttiness blends perfectly with beef’s big flavour. Find miso in the sushi section at the grocery store and keep refrigerated. Try it in marinades, dressings and mixed into bold beef burgers!
Fish Sauce: This is a savoury tangy seasoning that’s big in Thailand, often taking the place of salt. Made from anchovies, it is the secret weapon in killer stir-fries. Use just a splash to brighten dressings, sauces and marinades. Find it in the Asian section at your grocers. It will keep forever in the fridge.
