600g Thinly sliced topside steak, trimmed

4 Long, crusty bread rolls

1 cup Coriander leaves

4 Lettuce leaves

Sliced red chillies, spring onion, and soy sauce, to serve

Pickled vegetables:

2 tbsp Sugar

2 tsp Fine salt

1 Carrot, peeled and cut into long batons

1 Preheat a ridged chargrill or barbeque to moderately high. Rub the steaks with some vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a minute on each side or until cooked to your liking. You may need to do this in several batches. Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 5 minutes.

There are an infinite number of filling options for these tasty Vietnamese rolls. Try shop-bought crispy shallots, mayonnaise, pickled radish, pate, chilli sauce, watercress or mint leaves.
