MAN RUB STEAK SANDWICHES

Servings 6
Crispy onion rings, man rub aioli with steak and cheese sandwiched in a ciabatta bun, so lovely for a weekend lunch or dinner!

Ingredients

ONION RINGS

SANDWICH

  • 600 grams scotch filet steak
  • 6 ciabatta buns
  • Pepper and Me Herby Mustard butter
  • ½ cup Pepper and Me Aioli
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper and Me man rub
  • 6 slices cheddar cheese slices I used dairy works
  • Iceberg lettuce shredded

Instructions

  • To prepare the onion rings, combine the flour and Man Grind or chipotle and lime salt (I personally prefer the chipotle and lime salt) in a bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a deep pot.
  • Line a baking rack with a few layers of paper towels.
  • Slice the onion into rings at least 5mm thick and dip into the flour mixture, pop aside on a large plate.
  • Mix the egg and milk into the remaining flour mixture until it forms a smooth batter.
  • Dip the floured onion rings into the batter one at a time and gently place into the oil with tongs.
  • Once the onion ring starts turning golden, gently turn with tongs.
  • Cook the rings in small batches about 6-8 rings at a time, being careful not to over crowd the pot.
  • They will be ready once floating on the surface and nice and golden in colour on both sides.
  • Remove with a slotted spoon draining off excess oil and place on the paper towel lined rack.
  • Sprinkle with extra chipotle and lime salt.
  • Mix the aioli and man rub together in a small bowl.
  • Preheat the oven on grill at 200 degrees.
  • Cut the buns in half and place the cut side up on a baking tray, spread with herby mustard butter and place a slice of cheese on each base bun half.
  • Grill until golden and the cheese has melted.
  • Slice the steak into strips and pan fry quickly on each side in a little herby mustard butter.
  • Layer the steak, onion rings and lettuce onto the cheese.
  • Generously spread the man rub aioli onto the other bun half and sandwich together.

Notes

Serve with fries and man rub aioli.
