In a small bowl, combine the cumin, sugar, salt, thyme, pepper and
cayenne; blend . Rub the spice mixture evenly on the meat . Place on a
non-metallic plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until 20
minutes before cooking . The spice rub may be put on the meat up to 24
hours before cooking . The longer it is on the meat, the more intense the
flavor will be .
Place the rack in position B and preheat toaster oven on broil setting,
keeping door ajar . Put ¼ cup of water in the bottom of the drip tray;
position the drip tray so that the meat will be about 1 inch from the
upper element . Lightly coat the broiling rack with cooking spray and
arrange the meat on it . Broil with the door ajar for 16 to 20 minutes; turn
the London broil halfway through cooking time, until meat is done to
desired taste* . Let stand for 10 minutes before carving to allow the
juices to set; the meat will continue to cook during this time . Test for
appropriate doneness with an instant-read thermometer . After the meat
has rested, slice across the grain in very thin slices to serve .
*Times will be dependent on temperature and thickness of meat .
Test with an instant-read thermometer .
