Recipe Ingredients

3 tablespoons	45ml	Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt
2		Garlic cloves - minced
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Coarsely-ground black pepper
1		Flank steak - (abt 2 1/2 lbs)
		= (can use a sirloin steak)
		Cumin Aioli
1 tablespoon	15ml	Cumin seeds
1 tablespoon	15ml	Egg (large)
1 teaspoon	5ml	Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt
1		Garlic clove - minced
1/2 cup	118ml	Vegetable oil
1/2 cup	118ml	Olive oil
4 teaspoons	20ml	Lemon juice

Recipe Instructions

Mix the olive oil, salt, garlic and black pepper together in a small bowl. Spread on both sides of the steak. Cover and refrigerate.

Dry-roast the cumin seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat until they darken a shade. Remove from the heat. Finely grind half of the cumin seeds in a spice or coffee grinder.

In a blender or food processor, combine the egg, Dijon mustard, salt, garlic and the finely ground cumin seeds. With the motor on, add half of the oils in a slow steady stream. Add the lemon juice and continue adding the rest of the oil until the aioli is emulsified. If the mixture seems too thick, add a spoonful or two of water. Scrape the aioli into a bowl and stir in the whole cumin seeds.

Preheat the barbecue or broiler to high. Grill or broil the steak, 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice very thinly across the grain and serve with the Cumin Aioli on the side.
