Categories     Main - Meat     Main meal

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tbs olive oil (or beef dripping)
1 onion (peeled and diced)
2 cloves garlic (peeled and diced)
450 g minced beef (about 12-15% fat )
2 tsp mixed herbs (I like oregano and thyme)
2 tbs flour (any sort)
2 tbs tomato puree (or ketchup)
425 ml beef stock (for a richer use a stock pot)
250 g frozen mixed vegetables (your choice)
1 tbsp parsley (finely chopped)
1 - 2 tsp Bovril / Marmite / miso / Worcestershire sauce / soy sauce
1 - 2 tbs red / white wine
1 tbs chilli sauce

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a shallow casserole dish or saute pan that has a tightly fitting lid. Add the onion and cook for a fry for a few minutes, then add the garlic and cook for another minute or so, until starting to turn golden.
  • Add the mince to the onion to cook. It's best to do this in stages so that the mince has enough room in the pan to fry, rather than steam. Cook until all the meat is browned and there is no liquid left in the pan.
  • Add the flour and stir in. Continue to cook, stirring all the time. Make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan and burns.
  • Add herbs, tomato puree and beef stock, together with wine and yeast/beef extract/ soy sauce / Worcestershire sauce if used. Stir briefly, and bring to a gentle simmer.
  • Turn the heat right down and cover with the lid. The dish should be on a very gentle simmer. Leave for 20 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes, it should be dark and glossy, with a rich, thick gravy. Add the frozen vegetables and cook for a further 5-8 minutes.
  • Serve with potatoes, rice, pasta or on toast as a sloppy joe. Or allow to cool and freeze.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of spices and seasonings. Savory mince is a great way to experiment with different flavors. Try adding cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, or thyme. You can also add fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or basil.
  • Don't overcook the mince. Savory mince is best when it is cooked quickly over high heat. This will help keep it tender and juicy.
  • Serve savory mince with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, and vegetables are all great options.
