If the mince isn't done right, it's dull and borring on so many levels.
TGB can do fucking awesome things with Mince, she just chucks it all in not caring, doesn't take ages, like, 30 minutes and it's delish. Standard mince though, the way most people do it, no thanks.

Try soaking the mince in milk first before making a ragout.
Italians also use a mix of veal and beef and chicken livers in their lasagne. Had it once & it was great.

If you cook standard mince with a little toasted sesame oil
It gives a really nice flavour. Also, a bit of fresh oregano in the mix for thirty seconds to get the flavour out a bit... lovely!

you don't make lasagne with minced beef.
it's veal, pork and chicken livers.

I think you misunderstood me when I said 'standard lasagnia'...
I'm not talking about high end £50 worth of ingredients that have to be ordered from the butchers, I'm talking about something standard that people make in average households.

Sausage meat is pretty good in lasagna.

I want to make black pudding scotch eggs
Do you reckon I could do it with herby sausage meat? It's not overpowering (actually, it's fucking fantastic), but I'm just wondering whether it'd work or not...

I've never eaten a scotch egg,
I think they look disgusting.

Shop-bought ones certainly are.
Home-made ones on the other hand- lush!

The first one I ever had was home made
When I had a shop bought one, I was gutted at how shit it was.

I believe there is such a thing as a Manchester Egg
Which uses black pudding instead of sausage meat; and the egg is pickled.

That sounds vile
I mean to combine the sausagemeat with black pudding before coating the egg.

I don't find veal mince, pork mince and chicken livers
very hard to get mate, and you live in london. Pork mince is cheaper than beef, veal costs the same and chicken livers cost bugger all.

The hardest thing to get is veal mince, and you can replace that with beef if you like, but it's the pork and livers that matter.

And what happens if you can't stand liver?

(The Luggage is haunted..., Mon 17 Oct 2011, 10:52, Reply)

Have something else for supper instead.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Mon 17 Oct 2011, 10:53, Reply)

Works for me.
Although liver is bloody horrible, whatever people say.
