How to Make Beef California Roll Salad

- Place 2 (8-ounce) beef sirloin steaks in a food-safe plastic bag.
- Pour marinade over steaks, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Seal the bag tightly and refrigerate for 15 minutes to 2 hours.
- While the beef marinates, prepare the wasabi cucumbers: Combine 1 tablespoon wasabi paste and 2 tablespoons pomegranate juice in a medium bowl.
- Add 1 cup thinly sliced cucumbers and toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Prepare the gingered carrots: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons mayonnaise and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger.
- Add 1 cup shredded carrots and toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Remove steaks from marinade and discard marinade.
- Preheat grill to medium heat with a bed of ash for even cooking.
- Grill steaks for 7-10 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally. Use a meat thermometer to ensure desired internal temperature.

- Top with sliced beef.
- Garnish with ½ avocado, sliced, 2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds, and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds.
