Recipes for pork mince

I use pork mince for anything I would use beef mince for. I found this recipie and will try it out next week, as I have some beans in the garden that will be ready to eat.

One Pot Pork & Rice.

1 lb Pork Mince
1 lg onion chopped
1 red pepper chopped
14oz can chopped tomatoes
1 tblsp oil
1 pint beef stock
chilli powder and salt & pepper to taste
1 lb green beans
14oz long grain rice.

Pre heat oven to 180*c 350*f or gas 4.

Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole. Add the onion red pepper and pork and cook until lightly browned.
Add the rice and stir for 2 mins
Add the tomatoes stock beans chilli powder and seasoning.
Bring to the boil, put on the lid and transfer to the oven and bake for 40mins

This serves 4 people. As there is only 2 of us I think I will use the left overs for enchilladas

I make herby pork burgers by adding breadcrumbs, oinion,an egg and mixed herbs. If you give the meat a whizz first they should keep their shape.

There are lots of recipes for pork mince on the BBC site

Chinese style pork -like the filling you get for lettuce leaves, I've forgotten what it is called. Do you have some beansprouts and/or water chestnuts ? If not use finely diced carrot as you need a bit of crunch. Cook your mince with some 5 spice powder, soy sauce or any Chinese flavourings, add spring onions, garlic, ginger and the veg. Serve with rice or noodles. Not very authentic, but yummy.

If you have any chicken livers, you could make dirty rice. Pork mince makes very nice meatballs - flavour it with fennel seeds.
