1. prepare the cucumber salad. add sliced cucumbers to a large bowl and sprinkle salt over the top. let them sit for 30 minutes to draw excess water out of the cucumbers. after you have let them sit, drain the water and pat the cucumbers dry.

5. lay the steak flat and beat with a meat mallet. once the meat is even and flat, slice into small bite size pieces and set aside.
6. drizzle about 1-2 tbsp avocado oil over the sliced beef. season with white pepper and add tapioca flour. toss to combine.
7. in a wok or large frying pan over medium heat, add 1 tbsp avocado oil. next add the sliced beef. sear on each side for 2-3 minutes. once cooked, set aside.
