Mix the ground peppercorns with the Five-Spice powder and press into both sides of the steak. Cook on a griddle pan for 2-3 minutes each side.
Mix the beansprouts, half the ginger, the shallots and red pepper together, and distribute equally across the plates.
Slice the beef into strips and arrange on the vegetables.
To Make The Dressing
Mix the remaining ginger, soy sauce, chilies, lemon grass, groundnut oil, and sesame oil.
Drizzle with the dressing and serve, garnished with half a lime.
Notes
Ginger can be frozen into 1-inch pieces and then grated from frozen. It works just as well as when fresh, and convenient.Don't overcook to keep vegetables crisp.
