Peel the papaya, cut in half and scoop out all the seeds. Slice, cut into equal-sized, large matchsticks and place in a large bowl. Cut the cucumber in half lengthways and scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon. Next slice it into long, fine lengths and then cut these across to make into matchsticks. Add to the bowl along with the bean shoots.

Finely chop the ginger, crush, peel and finely chop the garlic, chop the coriander, finely dice the chilli and squeeze the lime. Add all to the bowl with the seasoning and carefully toss to evenly mix.

Heat the oil in a frying pan and when smoking hot add the steaks and cook for 1 minute on each side for rare or 2 minutes each side for medium. Remove from pan and leave to rest for 1 minute.

Divide the salad mixture between four plates. Using a very sharp knife, thinly slice the steak and arrange over the salad. Cut the remaining lime into wedges and place a piece on each plate.
