1. Start making the dressing by crushing the minced garlic and bird chili peppers together against the cutting board with the flat side of your knife to make a paste. 2. Put this paste in a small bowl and add lemongrass, fish sauce, lime juice, and sugar. 3. Whisk together to combine and set aside. 4. To cook the steak, heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. 5. Sear the steak on one side and continue to cook 5-6 minutes. 6. Turn over steak and cook for another 5 minutes or until medium rare or medium. 7. Remove from heat and let stand on cutting board for 5 minutes. 8. After meat has rested, slice steak very thinly. 9. In a large bowl, add beef (and any juices left on cutting board), mint, shallots, cilantro and cucumber. 10. Pour the dressing on top and toss gently. 11. Line a serving platter with romaine leaves and pile beef salad on top. 12. Serve with rice if desired. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
