  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 T wasabi mayo (1 t wasabi mixed with 2 T Kewpie mayo)

Cooking Instructions

1. Sear the beef fillet on both sides for 1 minute on a very hot grill.

3. Soak the garlic in milk for 10 minutes, then drain and fry until crispy.

4. To plate, divide the wasabi mayo between 2 plates and spread.

5. Thinly slice the beef fillet and plate in a circle. Discard the clingwrap. Spoon the ponzu over the fillet, then garnish with the red onion, mustard greens, spring onion and garlic.
