Smash and finely slice lemongrass, adding it to the beef.

Slice lime leaves finely and add to the beef mixture.

Season the beef with salt and pepper, then mix to combine.

Prepare the dressing by mixing 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon coconut sugar, microplaned ginger and garlic, diced chili, juice of 2 limes, 3 tablespoons fish sauce, and 4 tablespoons soy sauce.

Marinate the beef for at least an hour, preferably overnight.

Preheat the Tefal grill until the thermo signal indicates it's hot.

Grill the beef, turning it over a few times until cooked to medium rare, then rest it on a board.

Season the salad ingredients (cucumber, carrots, red bell pepper, red onion) with salt and pepper, then mix with hands to combine.

Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the salad and mix again gently.

Slice the rested beef on an angle and serve over the salad with rice noodles, drizzling with dressing and additional olive oil.
