Preparation
1
Get prepped

• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced.
• Thinly slice cucumber into half-moons.
• Thinly slice apple (see ingredients).
• Cut pita bread in half. Toast or grill to your liking, then cut or tear into  bite-sized chunks.
• Discard any liquid from beef strips packaging. In a medium bowl,  combine beef strips, Middle Eastern seasoning, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil.

Cook the beef

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat.
• When oil is hot, cook beef strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. 
TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over high heat helps it stay tender. 

3
Toss the salad

• In a second medium bowl, combine a drizzle of white wine vinegar, the honey and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add mixed salad leaves, cucumber, apple and pita croutons. Toss  to combine.
