Nutritional values

Beef and beans - always a nice pair! Especially when they present themselves as finely as they do here and bring so many good things with them. Such as there are, for example: protein, iron, nerve-strengthening B vitamins and - thanks to the pumpkin seeds - the radical scavenger vitamin E.

In the case of beans, longer cooking is exceptionally appropriate. If they are only cooked until they are firm to the bite, stomach ache may occur under certain circumstances, because residues of the incompatible protein phasin remain in them; only cooking (at least 10 minutes) reliably expels them.
