1. Whisk rice vinegar, fish sauce, grated ginger, garlic, hot sauce, red curry powder, and red curry paste in a shallow dish. Set aside.

3. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
4. Place steak on the grill and basil on top of steak. Grill steak for 6 minutes.
5. Remove basil, turn meat over, and place basil back on top of steak. Cook the steak until it begins to firm and is hot and slightly pink in the center, about 6 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
