What each ingredient does

Steak
Provides the meat juices that are pressed out and become the dish's savoury, rich flavour.
Toast
Gives the hot juice a crisp, absorbent base to soak into and serve on.

The step that matters

Broil the steak quickly for 3 minutes. Brief, high heat sears the outside and keeps the inside rare, so the pressed juice stays flavourful and tender rather than dry or overcooked.
