Minced beef recipe ideas - not shepherd's pie, not lasagne, not bolognese, not meatballs or burgers!!

[Kbear]

Come on, let's have yer bright ideas...

i grew up in the Eastern Cape - lekker

Just bumping this cos have been looking for ideas for mince tonight :)

The following mixture is nice with rice, noodles, tacos, wraps, pancakes and omelettes:

2 garlic cloves minced
1 fresh red chilli or 4 dried red chilli's
5 teaspoons sweetener
Juice & pulp of 1/4 lime
4 tablespoons of fish sauce
5 tablespoons of water

Pound garlic, chilli's & sugar in a mortar and pestle.
Stir in the lime juice & pulp, then the fish sauce and water; mix and combine the ingredients well.

Crazy Pizza pie

Chilli, mushroom and bean mince

Mince and mushroom stew

Minced beef with mushrooms

Mince and mushroom pasta

Just wanted to add that Nigella has a very nice recipe for mini meatloaves that can be frozen.
They are yummy.

Or fry it up with onions, a bit of stock and some mild curry powder and use it to fill pancakes. Serve with plain potatoes and peas. Bliss.

Risotto. Any left-over turn into Suppli'.

Stuffed courgettes baked in the oven with either white wine or tomatoes. If using tomatoes stuffed patatoes are lovely too.

Meatloaf with egg wrapped in ham (Parma or cooked)

Ravioli filling.

Cannelloni alla besciamella.

Stuffed aubergines? I used this recipe and it was very nice (used quorn mince as we're veggie but presumably it's just as good with real mince!)

chilli pasta bake is one of our fav's.

Make up a chilli as normal and mix with pasta instead of rice. Put it in a dish and then top with the following:-

2 eggs beaten
a clove or 2 of garlic
2 small tubs of low fat greek yog
a couple of big handfuls of grated cheese
all mixed together and spread over the top of the chilli pasta

put in the oven for about 30-40 mins until the topping goes golden brown
YUM SCRUM!
