3 tbsp balsamic vinegar

½ tsp pepper

2 dried figs, stems trimmed, chopped

340g stir fry sirloin steak

Freshly ground pepper, to taste

1 bunch asparagus, ends removed

In a food processor mix the vinegar, oil salt and pepper and figs until blended.

Place in a large sealable plastic bag with steak and turn to coat.

Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

Preheat grill to medium.

Remove the steak from the marinade and discard marinade.

Oil the grill rack and grill the steak for 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium-rare depending on thickness.

Meanwhile, steam the asparagus until just tender and serve with the steak.
