What each ingredient does

Rump steak
Provides the main body of the dish; finely minced meat cooks quickly and turns tender when simmered gently.

The step that matters

Stirring continuously over gentle heat. Minced meat added to a pan can clump into lumps as it heats unevenly. Constant stirring with a fork breaks up the mince and keeps the heat even, so the meat cooks into a smooth, crumbly texture.
