Lean, slow-cooked beef braising steak is a cut of beef cooked slowly until tender, with the lean meat described here. It mainly provides protein and fat, along with minerals including iron and zinc. Per 100g, it contains 31g of protein, 7.9g of fat, 3.4g of saturated fat and 2.5mg of iron.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood, while zinc supports normal immune function. Although this is lean meat, it still contains saturated fat, which is relevant for people monitoring their intake. Added salt, stock or sauces can change the salt content of the finished dish.
