Slice the steaks thinly and marinade in salt and black pepper and the crushed garlic. For best results, marinade in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Mix the sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce and fish sauce in a small bowl.
Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet and fry the steak slices until nearly cooked through. Make sure you get a good sear. Add the butter and allow the cube to melt. Pour in the soy sauce mixture and leave to bubble away for a minute.
Serve in a bowl with the rice, lettuce, tomatoes and lime wedges.
