Ingredients

  • 500g beef rump steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 brown onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 4 anchovy fillets, drained, finely chopped

Method

1) Combine beef and garlic in a bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a frying pan over high heat. Cook one-third of beef mixture for 2-3 minutes or until browned. Transfer to a plate. Repeat, in 2 more batches, with 2 teaspoons of the remaining oil and the remaining beef mixture.
