Put the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice and sugar in a small bow, then stir in the ginger, chilli and shallot to make a fragrant dressing.
Heat a griddle pan or heavy-bottomed frying pan until it's smoking hot. Rub the steaks with a splash of olive oil and season well with salt and pepper. When the pan is ready, add the steak and cook for 2-21/2 mins each side, until seared on the outside and juicily medium-rare in the middle. Remove form the pan and leave to rest for 5 minutes. Strew a few baby leaves onto a serving plate. Slice a steak into fingerish widths, then splash with the dressing. Scatter a few herbs over the top, along with some of the radish matchsticks, then trickle extra-virgin oil over the top. Serve immediately.
