Here's a step-by-step guide on how to cook mince meat properly:
- Heat the Pan: Add a dash of oil to a hot pan. The pan should be hot enough so the mince browns instead of steams.
- Add the Mince: Add the mince meat to the hot pan.
- Break It Up: Use a spatula or spoon to break the mince into smaller pieces. This helps it cook evenly.
- Stir Frequently: Stir the mince frequently to prevent it from sticking to the pan and to ensure even browning.
- Cook Until Browned: Cook the mince until it is browned all over. If it starts to stew (release a lot of liquid), increase the heat slightly to evaporate the excess moisture.
