Philly cheese steak in Australia

So here we are. We just arrived in Perth, Australia and we need some getting used to. It's colder about 18 degrees and so different then Asia. At the moment we're in a hostel and figuring out our next steps. We're looking for a job, got an Australian number and we're getting a bank account. So much to figure out so time for simple food. But nevertheless I still wanted to make something Yammie. So Philly cheese steak it was but then with a little Spanish twist. What do you need? For 2 persons who are hungry:
300 gram of good quality steak
1 tomato
150 grams of cherrytomato
1/5 zukini
1 teaspoon of chilli powder
Cheese, how much, what type? Whatever you prefer
4 whole wheat buns
4 table spoon of good quality extra virgin olive oil

To begin: get the steak out of the fridge we're not gonna do anything with it just getting it to room temperature. Slice the zukini in very thin slices and sprankle olive oil and a little pepper and salt over them. Then put them one by one in stir fry on medium heat. Let the zukinis bake. In the meanwhile slice up the cherry tomatoes in four. Put these in a bowl. Check on the zukinis are they coloring? Flip them over. Get another stir fry on the gas and put a table spoon of olive oil in the pan. Sprankle the steak with pepper and salt only one side. You when the oil is hot enough when it gives of a little damp. Put the thesteaks in the pan. I like mine rare so I flipped the steaks over after one minute. Put if you like more medium then wait a little longer. When you flipped them over put cheese on the steaks. It's time to get the zukinis of of the stove and on a plate. Now this is the moment where you put them in an preheated oven of 180 degrees for 2 to 3 minutes till the cheese is melted. I didn't have an oven so I did it in the pan. (Apparently nobody bakes in hostel such a shame :-)). The cheese didn't melt entirely but that's ok. When you put the steaks, it's time to build you're sandwich. Cut all the buns in half. Remember the tomato? Cut it in four and rub it on side of the buns. Sprinkle some olive oil over the buns as well and some pepper and salt. Put the zukini slices on the same side as the tomato rub and at the cherry tomatoes. Now cut the meat carefully in slices how big you like, and lay them on the bun to. Sprankle the chilli powder over the cheese. And enjoy you're meal!

Love,
