This vibrant salad brings together greens, tomatoes, cucumber, and sweet peas, all lightly tossed with fresh chives & olive oil. Butter-basted & spiced beef rump slices take center stage, drizzled with a rich & tangy blue cheese dressing. To finish, a crunchy mix of sunflower seeds & crispy onion bits adds the final flourish.
