Beef Quesadilla:

  2. Coat either side of the rump steak in oil and 3/4's of the spice mix
  3. Slice the red onion and capsicum into thin strips.
  4. Add a splash of oil to the pan. Once hot, add the rump steak and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side (or cook longer if you prefer well done)
  5. Set the steak aside to rest, covered in tin foil for 5 minutes.
  6. Fry off the onions, capsicum and the remaining spice mix for 3-4 minutes until softened
