Grilled Beef Salad
"This is a Thai recipe from "The Best of Gourmet 2000". I found it a bit salty, so if you try it, you may want to cut the fish sauce in half, but we really enjoyed it. It is very simple and fast to make. You can marinate the steaks up to 3 hours. Prep time is excluding the marinating time."
