Hear the temple bells gong when this exciting flavor mélange hits your palate. Marinated grilled hot beef with plenty of spice make this an ideal main course salad you can savor year-round.

Ingredients:

2 Andy Boy romaine hearts, torn into bite-sized pieces
1 large cucumber
1 red onion, thinly sliced
11 firm radishes, trimmed
16 fresh mint leaves
16 fresh basil leaves
1/2 C cilantro leaves
1 C fish sauce
1/2 t powdered hot red chilies
1 lb top sirloin
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 C salad oil

Directions:

1. Prepare a charcoal or other grill for cooking meat.
2. Thinly slice the cucumbers and radishes. Cut scallions into 1 inch lengths.
3. Prepare all the greens as indicated and combine with vegetables in a salad bowl.
4. Mix together fish sauce, chilies and salad oil.
5. Brush meat with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill meat on both sides, about 2 minutes to a side or longer, depending on the desired degree of doneness. Quickly, while meat is still hot, cut the slices into 1/2 inch strips and add them to the greens. If there are any accumulated meat juices, add them to the sauce. Pour the sauce over all and toss.
