Stevie Parle sirloin steak with grilled vegetables and cumin yogurt recipe on The Spice Trip cumin trail in Turkey

Stevie Parle makes sirloin steak with grilled vegetables and cumin yogurt on The Spice Trip cumin trail in Turkey.

Stevie says: “When I need beef for a recipe I always try to find dry aged, rare breed meat. It’s far tastier than the commercial types, although it does cost a bit more. I try to eat better meat less frequently.”

The ingredients are: 4 x 200g sirloin steaks, 2 tsp dried oregano, Olive oil, 4 Turkish green peppers or 2 normal green peppers, 1 aubergine, cut into 1cm slices, 4 courgettes, cut into ½cm slices, ½ tsp salt, 6 cherry tomatoes, Red wine vinegar, Salt and freshly ground black pepper and 3 tbsp cumin spice blend.

For the yoghurt dressing: ¼ garlic clove, 1 heaped tsp cumin seeds, toasted and 6 tbsp Greek yoghurt, plus extra for serving.
