How to make Grain bowls with grilled corn, steak, and avocado

Here’s the revised method formatted for a British audience:

1. Season the steak with 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Allow it to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.

2. Prepare the grill for medium-high heat or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

3. Grill the steak, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the centre of the steak registers 50–55°C for medium-rare, cooking for 2–3 minutes per side for skirt steak and 3–4 minutes per side for flank steak. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for at least 10 minutes, or until cool.

4. Meanwhile, grill the corn until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer the corn to a cutting board and allow it to cool.

5. Slice the corn off the cobs into a large bowl. Add the grains, feta, scallions, oil, lime juice, and ½ tsp salt, then stir to combine. Divide the corn mixture among serving bowls.

6. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. For easier slicing of skirt steak, cut it into 12–15 cm segments before slicing against the grain. Top each bowl with slices of steak and avocado. Drizzle with jalapeño sauce and season with salt and pepper.

7. Do Ahead: The steak and corn can be grilled up to 3 days in advance. Transfer them to separate airtight containers and refrigerate.
