GOLDEN AUBS
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Spread the aubergine wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, ½ the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until softened and crisping up, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
ZINGY TOMS
In a bowl, combine the diced tomato, the vinegar, and seasoning. Set aside. Place the chimichurri in a bowl and loosen with a drizzle of olive oil.
SUNNY SEEDS
When the aubergine has 10-15 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium heat with the sunflower seeds. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
AWESOME BEEF
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the beef strips dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the beef strips until browned, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final minute, baste the beef with the remaining NOMU rub and a knob of butter. Add the browned beef strips to the bowl with the chimichurri. Toss until coated and set aside.
BALSAMIC SALAD
Just before serving, add the rinsed green leaves to the bowl with the tomatoes along with a drizzle of olive oil. Toss until fully combined.
