Nutritional values

Rump steak is rich in high-quality protein, the individual parts of which provide the best building material for all body cells, enzymes, hormones and the blood protein. In addition, the meat provides a lot of iron, without which the red blood pigment haemoglobin cannot be provided for oxygen transport.

If there is any sauce left over: Well sealed, it keeps in the refrigerator for a few days and is an ideal souvenir for the next barbecue party, for example.
