Mince & Tatties image

What is "mince and tatties"? - I hear you ask. Basically it is meat and potatoes, but with a Scottish recipe. Ever since I was a kid, I have loved mince & tatties, and even these days I could live on it.

Categories     Potato

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb beef mince (Yanks call it 'ground sirloin', we usually buy the 8%-10% fat range)
1 large onion
vegetable oil or olive oil
carrot
peas (we use frozen)
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet beef gravy
6 boiling potatoes

Steps:

  • In a good sized pan (non-stick is best) heat up some oil, chop up the onion, and stir fry.
  • Break up the mince, and place in the pan.
  • Stir until brown.
  • Make up the brown gravy (see packet for directions! LOL).
  • Add the gravy to the mince, and start to simmer.
  • Chop up the carrots (as much/little as you want) and add to the mix.
  • Pour in some peas.
  • Add salt (we use low sodium)& pepper, stir and simmer the mixture for about 20 minutes.
  • Peel and chop the potatoes, and boil for about 20 minutes, adding some salt.
  • Serve and enjoy.
  • Also great if served with some boiled cabbage or Brussels sprouts.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mince tatties turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

The mince tatties were a bit too greasy for me. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

These mince tatties were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
