Method
Step 1. Preheat Everdure FUSION to high heat. Sprinkle the garlic powder, oregano and salt over the beef rump steaks. Drizzle over the olive oil and massage into the beef.
Step 2. Place the rump and the onion halves onto the pre-heated BBQ. Cook the rump for 2-3mins on each side (for medium rare), or until cooked to your liking. Cook onion for 10 minutes, until charred on the bottom and tender inside the skin. Remove the rump and rest for 5-10 minutes. While the steak is resting. Wave the curry leaves over the hot grill to wilt and become fragrant. Pick the leaves and place them on top of the rump while it rests.
Step 3. While the rump is resting, place the zucchini and kale onto the bbq in batches. Cook, turning everything as needed, until lightly charred and tender, about 6-8 minutes. Roughly chop the zucchini, kale and onion and place into a large bowl
Step 4. To make the dressing, add the lemon juice, garlic, anchovies, parmesan, mustard, salt, pepper and olive oil into a bowl. Mix well to combine until creamy. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.
Step 5. Slice the steak and plate up with a generous portion of salad. Sprinkle over the wilted curry leaves to finish.
