Springbok Loin Tataki by Shane Louw
Springbok Loin Tataki - At Mont Rochelle, we usually serve this dish with a BBQ carrot puree and roasted figs. Any fruit or vegetable which has a fair amount of sugar content and acidity works well to balance the dish.
Ingredients
Method
1. Season the springbok loin with the salt, pepper and sesame oil.
2. Quickly sear all sides of the loin in a hot pan and remove to rest.
3. Meanwhile, in the same pan add all of the marinade’s ingredients and cook for 5 minutes on a high heat.
4. Leave the loin and the marinade to cool to room temperature, before placing both into a vacuum bag and sealing.
5. Allow to marinade for at least 2 hours. We like to leave it overnight to make the most of the flavours!
6. Remove the Springbok from the vacuum bag and cut into desired portion size. When plating, use the remaining marinade as a glaze.
