It's a load of mince

[pinkiefriend]

I have just bought some Basic Sainsbury's Mince meat, it was really cheap as it was reduced due to today being it's sell by date. I was planning making mince and tatties or something tasty with it, does anyone have a favorite recipe, and it doesn't have to be for mince and tatties, just something tasty to cook with mince.

Shepherds Pie, Chilli con carne, spaghetti bolognese

we used to make mince and put a spoonful of curry powder in it and it was lovely!

Hi pinkiefriend, how about making some meatballs?

mince

1 finely chopped onion

1-2 bread slices made into bread crumbs

1 tsp oregano

1 egg

1 tblsp ketchup

seasoning

All in a bowl, combine thoroughly and make into balls. Fry them till they're browned and then add 1-2 pints of beef stock and simmer for 1/2 hour or so, you can thicken with 1-2 tsp cornflour mixed with cold water, and serve with veggies.....

How about a tasty meatloaf;-
Minced Beef
Breadcrumbs
Horseradish Sauce
Beaten egg

Mix all together and press into a loaf tin.Spread some Tomato ketchup over the top and bake in oven for 30 - 40 mins.
Nice served with a jacket spud or whatever you fancy!

Oops..........forgot the seasoning and herbs!!

Cook mince with onion add a few frozen mixed diced veg. 1 jar bolongnese sauce. Cook in separate pan small pasta shells then drain and mix with the mince and veg mix.add seasoning I use mixed herbs.

And Asciwhite I have copied a few of your recipes especially the one with the pork. That was very nice.

[wendilla]

SORRY ACSWHITE I got that wrong it was you that put the question up for pork in cider and Livk came up with the recipe for slow cooker.

[asciwhite]

That's really lovely to know that wendilla, the pork one was from livk though, thats the one where i asked for pork in cider and that is a lovely spring time recipe she gave. I don't know where she's gone... memory not brill, did you do the cheesecake? :-)

[wendilla]

Think we must have posted last reply at the same time..It was Drusilla that had the cheesecake recipe from you .

[asciwhite]

Oh Blimey, said my memory was defunct.... still both remembered Livks recipe.... :-) it's lamb chops for us tonight, and pecan ice cream with bananas and toffee sauce for afters...

Sorry pinkiefriend, off on a tangent again!!

Easy Chilli - but probably too late for today:

Chop an onion and fry till soft. Add mince and cook for a few minutes till fat runs. Drain fat away.

Add a chopped red pepper, a tin of tomatoes and a tin of kidney beans, including the liquid they come in. Add a half teaspoon of chilli flakes (or a full teaspoon of powder.)

Cook for around 40 mins. Serve with boiled rice.

My favourite quick-recipe with mince:

Shallow fry in a deep pan for some minutes.
Add stock, salt, pepper, tomatoe puree, and any other seasoning you like.
Put in Pasta, boil for around 10 minutes.
Add sweetcorn if you like.

Finished.

For any mince dish where you're using stock, add a tablespoon or so of brown sauce such as Daddies or HP with the stock. The vinegar in the sauce will have cooked away totally after 10 minutes or so, and you'll find there's a super added richness to the mince.

And for recipies that call for tomato puree, add it to the browned mince, mix in well, and fry while stirring for a minute or two before adding any of the remaining ingredients. It'll give a nice sundried/roasted tomato sort of flavour.

Mmm!

Taco Soup

1 Pound of Hamburger (I think you guys call it minced beef) � Browned & Drained

1 Pack Taco Seasoning

1 Can Rotel Tomatoes (has jalapeno peppers in it)

1 Can Dark Red Kidney Beans

1 Can Corn � Whole Kernel

1 Can of Water

Mix together & cook until it looks done.


After you put it in your bowl � taste it, it is great that way and less fattening � then put a big blob of sour cream in it and mix it up � then taste it again.

Garnish with black olives, cheese, onions, chives � whatever makes you happy.

I double the recipe and freeze it so I can just microwave a container when I want soup. It is way better than it sounds.
