Ingredients

• Beef sirloin - 200 grams
• Rice flour - 100 grams
• Coconut milk - 200 ml
• Turmeric powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Sugar - 1 teaspoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Lemon grass - 1 stalk, finely chopped
• Vegetable oil - 2 tablespoons
• Water - 250 ml
• Lettuce leaves - 4 leaves
• Mint leaves - 1/2 cup
• Cilantro - 1/2 cup
• Sliced cucumber - 1/2 cup
• Sriracha sauce - for serving

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the beef sirloin with garlic, lemongrass, salt, pepper, and sugar. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. In another bowl, mix the rice flour, coconut milk, turmeric powder, and water until smooth to create the batter for the pancakes.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a teaspoon of vegetable oil. Pour in a ladle of the batter and cook until the edges are crispy and the surface is set, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat for the remaining batter.
4. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated beef slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
5. To serve, place a pancake on a plate, add grilled beef, and top with lettuce, mint, cilantro, and cucumber. Wrap it up and enjoy with a drizzle of Sriracha sauce.
