At our local market its advertised as chicken pet mince. Its probably all beaks and feet lol you never know but it looks like minced chicken and is in a small bag £1 for 4.

You could ask at your local market and see if any of the butchers do it but any value mince at a supermarket will do if you can`t find any. Maybe a mug and a half for a slowcooker full of petfood when mixed with the other ingredients.

Its all the off cuts and left over meats they cant sell to us to eat. From the smell of it when it cooks it is a rather strong offal smell rather than the fresher meatier smell of say beef mince.

Today I have Lamb and Vegetable curry for lunchtime

Leftover lamb from Sunday
1 large carrot
1 onion
3 small potatoes (that were sprouting)
Curry powder
Vegetable stock cube
Water
Squeeze of lemon juice
Black pepper

I`ve cooked this loads of times but usually in the pressure cooker or on the hob. Thought I`d give the slower cooker a chance today.
