Grilled Flank Steak with Cumin Aioli Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Mix the olive oil, salt, garlic and black pepper together in a small bowl. Spread on both sides of the steak. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Dry-roast the cumin seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat until they darken a shade. Remove from the heat. Finely grind half of the cumin seeds in a spice or coffee grinder.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine the egg, Dijon mustard, salt, garlic and the finely ground cumin seeds.
  • With the motor on, add half of the oils in a slow steady stream. Add the lemon juice and continue adding the rest of the oil until the aioli is emulsified. If the mixture seems too thick, add a spoonful or two of water.
  • Scrape the aioli into a bowl and stir in the whole cumin seeds.
  • Preheat the barbecue or broiler to high. Grill or broil the steak, 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice very thinly across the grain and serve with the cumin aioli on the side.

    As with the other aioli recipes posted here, you can vary the taste of the aioli by adding a roasted, peeled, and seeded red or yellow pepper before you begin emulsifying the oil.
