    1 Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 8–10 minutes or until golden and caramelised. Add balsamic glaze, stirring to combine. Remove pan from heat.

    2 Meanwhile, lightly spray a chargrill pan or a barbecue hotplate with olive oil and heat over high heat. Sprinkle steaks with spice or seasoning, lightly spray with olive oil then add to pan and cook for 1 minute each side or until cooked to your liking.

    3 Place a toasted sourdough slice on each serving plate. Top with cheese, capsicum, leaf mix, beetroot, cucumber, steak and caramelised onion. Serve drizzled with sauce and garnished with herbs.

    HFG tip

    Instead of freshly grated beetroot, you can use a store-bought relish. Or swap for fruit chutney, sauerkraut or pickles.
