1/4 cup canola oil |
1/4 cup fresh lime juice |
1 tablespoon thai fish sauce |
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar |

6 sliced radishes |
3 1/2 cups sliced red onion |
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind |
Directions:
1. Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add beef, reduce heat to medium-high, and simmer 25 minutes or until medium-rare. Remove beef from saucepan with tongs, cover beef with aluminum foil, and let stand 10 minutes.
2. Combine canola oil, lime juice, fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Set aside.
3. Combine watercress, mint, cilantro, radishes, onion, and lemon rind in a large bowl; refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
