Method

  • 1.
    For the sumac labneh, combine yoghurt, lemon juice and 1/2 tsp salt flakes in a bowl. Transfer yoghurt mixture to a colander lined with muslin or a clean Chux cloth set over a bowl. Fold over cloth to cover and weigh down. Chill for 24 hours to drain.
  • 2.
    Place steak, 2 tbs olive oil, garlic, thyme and 2 tsp salt flakes in a bowl and toss to coat. Set aside for 1 hour to bring to room temperature.
  • 3.
    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Grease a baking tray and line with baking paper.
  • 4.
    To make roasted carrots, toss carrots on prepared tray with cumin, caraway seeds, honey, 1/2 tsp salt flakes and remaining 2 tbs olive oil. Roast carrots, turning halfway, for 30 minutes or until tender.
  • 5.
    Heat a chargrill pan or barbecue to medium-high heat. Cook steak mixture for 6-7 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking. Transfer steak to a plate to rest for 8 minutes, then thickly slice.
  • 6.
    Meanwhile, for the cucumber, mint and fennel salad, toss all ingredients in a bowl until combined. Fold sumac through labneh.
  • 7.
    Scatter steak with the grilled garlic and thyme, and sprinkle with salt flakes. Serve with salad, roasted carrots and sumac labneh.
