What each ingredient does

Tender rump steak
Provides the meat that cooks into the dish, with its own juices forming the sauce.

The step that matters

Cook over low heat, stirring until hot and not lumpy. Low heat and frequent stirring break up the mince so it cooks evenly. Overheating can toughen the meat and make it dry.
