Bread salad with steak strips

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 400 g beef steak(s) (rump steak)
• 2 cloves garlic
• Paprika powder, hot
• salt and pepper
• olive oil
• 6 slices of toast
• 6 tomatoes
• 1 cucumber(s)
• ½ bunch of spring onions
• Balsamic vinegar, white
• possibly sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 8 minutes; Total time approx. 28 minutes

Season the steaks with paprika and pepper. Peel the garlic. Fry the steaks with the whole garlic cloves in olive oil for 3-5 minutes per side. Remove the steaks from the pan, season with salt, wrap in aluminum foil, and set aside. Dice the bread and toast it in the garlic pan to make croutons, adding more oil if necessary. Wash and dice the tomatoes and cucumber, and slice the spring onions. Remove the steaks from the foil and collect the juices. Cut the steaks into thin slices and toss with the salad. Make a salad dressing from the juices, vinegar, oil, salt, pepper—sugar, and water to taste—and pour it over the salad. Serve with the croutons.
