More exciting mince recipes

Tacos or Enchiladas- stuff taco shells with mince *cooked however spicy you do/not like it*, top with lettuce and cheese for those that like it, then try and eat it without wearing it as it spills out the sides yum yum yum on a spanish-esq theme just now

Mm taco's are so lovely and fun to eat too.

Easiest thing (although I'm not THAT keen on it but I'm not that keen on curry unless it's Indian) is curried mince. As far as I know it's curry powder and mince :rotfl:

Our favourite in courgette season is this mince recipe:

1) brown mince together with an onion
2) add cubed courgette and stir-fry until courgette is a little soft.
3) season with salt & pepper (optional: add some dried mixed herbs or herbes de provence)
4) transfer the mixture to an oven dish
5) pour one or 2 eggs, lightly beaten, over the top
6) 20 mins in 180° oven

serve with rice and tomato ketchup.

my asda today was selling their normal mince 250g pack for 25p each.
Already had 1 packet in my fridge and I got another 4 packet.

I now have 1.25kg of mince and I have no clue what to do with it lol.

I have onions and carrots, potatoes and gravy in the cupboard.

I was going to use one to make bolognese with my cheap Ragu sauce I got on offer 2 for £1..

but what can I make with the rest?

I was thinking about frikadellen but then I have to get pork mince as well.

any ideas gladly welcomes.

P.s I have most cooking equipment including a new unused dont know how to slow cooker :rolleyes:

Was that the mince that was cheap (50p) at the weekend? I'd like to know how it is (fatty?) as I bought some of their sausages when last on 50p offer and am trying to find recipes to make them more palatable!

Auzelia

yeah thats the same mince ...

we had bought 2 packets at 50p (one left from that batch) and used it for spagetti bolognese with the other ragu offer sauce and it was nice.

I like the normal mince and not extra lean as I like the fat for flavour.
