Edit: Steak is only served that way.

# I have to say raw meat isn't particularly appealing to me.
I like it _just_ cooked through.

# Ah well, each to his/her/it's own.
I'm quite a fan of the raw stuff, meself - Oysters, Steak Tatare, Sushi etc.

# I had a raw oyster a long time ago, never tried raw fish sushi
because I don't like fish. Don't think I like the idea of a raw beefburger.

I saw a dish (on tv) that was beef strips marinated for a long time in an acidic solution I'd give that a go.

# That sounds rather nice.
I recall a recipe doing beef in Japanese Rice Wine, that'd be a good one to try.

# Great Stuff!
many thanks for that.

Edit: Is it also the practice to call Coriander 'Cilantro' down under, as well?
I'll need to check my Donna Hays....

# not that I'm aware of, not unless coriander is used to mean different things
like "shallot". ed: i can't decide if it's flat parsley or coriander in your roast beef pic.

# Most prolly Flat Leaf Parsley
or some Roquette-related nonsense.

# thats not raw! its supposed to be ready pink in the middle for the taste....
try it, you won´t go back!

Here in spain the chefs refuse to cook it completely brown as they see it as an insult.

# When my wife and I were in France she asked for a well done steak at a small town bistro -
the waiter almost had a fit! She settled for medium, but the waiter did finally explain how to order well done - just rap on the table - you want it cooked until it is as hard as wood...

(mine was a perfect medium rare, BTW.)

That's something that's been hacked off the corpse of an animal.
