Spec me a meal

[MikeHunt79]

Right, I've got some mince I need to use up, but I'm board on chilli-con-carne so can you guys/gals suggest anything else?

I've got:
1lb of mince
loads of potatos
carrots
onions
1/2 a pepper
garlic

plus quite a lot of stuff tinned like tomatos, tuna, beans, etc.

So, what could I make? Something spicey would be good, I'm pretty open minded when it comes to food. Unfortunately, I'm out of spam, so I can't make a meal with that.

shepherds/cottage pie?

Im sure u could make some sort of Shephards pie remix type thing. Mince, n the veg / tinned tomatoes / garlic etc, then cover it in mashed potato - there you go.

Was going to say the same.

Cottage pie is fantastic but it doesn't traditionally contain tomatoes .

Lots of Lee + Perrins is good. Maybe a little mustard too in the meat or the mash.

You can eat the carrots while you wait for it to arrive.

Wouldn't add the mince to the veg, unless you like burnt onions, garlic and carrots as you need a high heat to brown mince. Brown the mince in a seperate pan.

,

the mince will cool the pan immensely, the onions/garlic wont burn.

Well, I liked the idea of a "cottage pie remix", so I thought I'd try something different. I didn't have any cornflour, but the gravy granuals did the job. Mustard is a good idea tho... I really need to get some more, as I have it on everything. I used a little chilli powder and tabasco sauce in the meat & veg.

Here it is... I'm rather stuffed now, as I ate quite a bit.

It was tasty tho... Recommended.

I managed it ok in the same pan... Nothing got burnt, as the fat in the mince stopped things from going black.
