Grilled Scotch Fillet with Smoky Eggplant Salad
When hunger comes knocking, give this delectable combination a try. Picture your plate now: succulent grilled steaks with a nourishing, smoky eggplant salad, all topped with the sweet crunch of fresh pomegranate seeds. Yum.
When choosing your Scotch fillet steaks, opt for grass-fed beef that has been ethically produced. Here’s why:
- Lower in fat: Grass-fed beef is generally lower in total fat than grain-fed beef and has a healthier balance of fatty acids.
- Higher in omega-3 fatty acids: Grass-fed beef is higher in omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for brain health, heart health, and reducing inflammation.
- Higher in conjugated linoleic acid (CLA): Grass-fed beef is also higher in CLA, a type of fat that has been linked to a variety of health benefits, including reduced inflammation, improved blood sugar control, and decreased body fat.
- Richer in antioxidants: Grass-fed beef contains more antioxidants than grain-fed beef, which can help protect your body against oxidative stress and cell damage.
- Ethical and sustainable: Choosing grass-fed beef that has been raised ethically and sustainably can help support small farmers, reduce the environmental impact of livestock production, and ensure that animals are treated humanely.
Once you’ve got your steaks, it’s time to get grilling! The smoky flavour of the eggplant salad perfectly complements the rich and juicy steak, making for a meal that’s both hearty and healthy. So, fire up the grill and get ready to enjoy a delicious and satisfying meal that’s good for you—and the planet.

Notes
- If you have any leftovers, Scotch Fillet is great sliced thinly and used in a stir-fry. The steak just needs to be gently warmed through so it’s still tender.
- When cooking steak on a BBQ the plate must be hot and the lid kept down. This helps the steak char and cook through at the same time creating a lovely caramelised surface and tender centre.
- Meat should always be cooked at room temperature to ensure it cooks evenly, so get into the habit of removing your steaks from the fridge about 20 minutes before cooking.
