The fresh, juicy mango salsa, with a hint of chilli, perfectly complements the succulent barbecued steak.
- Serves 4
- Takes 10 min to make, 6-14 min to barbecue, plus 30 min’ marinating and 5 min' resting
Ingredients
- 6 tbsp clear honey
- 4 tbsp dark soy sauce
- Large pinch of five-spice powder
- 4 x 225-300g good rib-eye or sirloin steaks, about 2.5cm thick
- Oil, for brushing
For the mango and chilli salsa
- 1 large, ripe but firm mango, peeled, stoned and diced
- 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely sliced
- 3 spring onions, thinly sliced on the diagonal
- 1 tbsp lime juice
Method
- Mix the honey, soy sauce and five-spice powder in a shallow dish with plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Add the steaks and massage the mixture well into both sides. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
- If using a charcoal barbecue, light it about 30 minutes before you want to cook. If using a gas barbecue, preheat it 10 minutes beforehand.
- Season the steaks all over with a little salt. Brush the cooking grate with oil, add the steaks and barbecue directly over a high heat for 3 minutes each side for rare; 4-5 minutes for medium; or 6-7 minutes for well-done. Set aside, covered with foil, to rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix the salsa ingredients together with a pinch of salt and serve with the steaks.

Great marinade for all types of meat – add ginger and garlic, omit five spice, or whatever appeals. The salsa is hot and sour and fresh. Great flavours for little work and cooks quickly.
