Marmalade Mince - You Know You Wanna Try It...

Right, after many millions of emails (okay, 3) asking for the recipe for my lovely marmalade mince, I thought I would write it down so that my many readers can try it for themselves and be converted.  You will NEVER eat plain mince EVER again.


MINCE
1. Get a pan


2. Rinse it under the tap cos it's probably been sitting in the washing up pile for a day or more


3. Stick it on the hob and turn the firey/hot bit on

4. Put some onions into it (frozen are best for quickness and pure lazy bastardness) and swish them about with a wooden spoon (be careful where you put the wooden spoon down when you are not using it to swish as it can very quickly catch on fire)


5. Chuck the already unfrozen mince in the pan (you can use frozen mince too but you'll have to stand over it and stab the shit out of it with a blunt knife until it melts enough to cook)


Whilst you are waiting for the mince to brown (which is quicker if you whack up the heat to high), make your 'sauce':


SAUCE
1. Get a jug


2. Repeat step 2, above

3. Put a few teaspoons of Bisto (original) in the jug - a few tablespoons will do if, like most of the world, all your teaspoons have gone missing


4. Put a dollop of marmalade into the Bisto granules (sorry about the pic, dunno what the green strips are!)
5. Pour boiling water on the Bisto (forgot to mention you should have boiled a kettle...I'll wait for you to catch up)


tum tee tum....



MINCE...continued

6. Once the mince is brown (assuming it was pinky/red when it went in the pan) chuck in the aforementioned ready made jug full of marmalade Bisto

7. Give it a bit of a swish

8. Lob in a few spuds, to save rinsing out another pan

9. Swish it about when you remember

10. Cut up the spuds whilst they are in the pan (this is much easier than cutting them up when they are raw)

11. When you are hungry, eat it

TA DA...Suck it Delia Smith!

You can also freeze this into compartmentalised Tupperware containers because, unless you are a fat mong, you won't manage to eat it all in a oner!
