1 cup mung bean sprouts
1 small kohlrabi, peeled and julienned
2 carrots, peeled and julienned
1 pound fresh, raw spinach leaves, well washed and stems discarded
1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut in half
2 tablespoons tamarind paste
4 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons rice wine
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 pound beef flank steak, cut into 1/4 thick strips, sliced against the grain
Salt and pepper to taste

1
Prepare the salad by combining all the vegetables in a large bowl.
2
Combine the tamarind with the sugar and rice wine and toss with the vegetables to marinate while the beef is cooking.
3
Cook the beef in two batches so that each batch is well seared and served medium rare.
4
Heat half the peanut oil in a wok or large skillet until hot.
5
Add half the beef, season with salt and pepper and cook quickly over high heat.
6
As the beef sears well but before it overcooks, remove from the pan and briefly set aside while you repeat the procedure with the remaining beef.
7
When the second batch is similarly cooked, return the first batch of beef to the pan and quickly heat all together.
8
Add the ginger, cumin, basil and fish sauce.
9
Cook for 1 to 2 minutes more before serving by pouring over and wilting the marinated vegetable salad.
10
Serve with glutinous rice that has soaked raw overnight and then steamed for 30 minutes.
