Can anyone tell me a great recipe for Lamb mince?

Answer 1

Use it to make mousaka. The way it's made in Cyprus.

Answer 2

Yeah, I'd go for Mousaka - very tasty, but beware - every cookbook has a different version and they are all a bit demanding time wise.

I use layers of sliced potato, aubergine and minced lamb mixture.

Cook the mince in a frypan and then drain off most of the oil, then add fresh tomatoes without skins and chopped a bit, plus fried onions, parsley, seasonings, red Oxo cube, etc. Cook until the tomatoes have broken down. Add white wine to achieve a nice fairly moist mix.

You need to prepare the sliced aubergines by rinsing them and then putting salt on them and leaving them for about an hour before rinsing again and frying in olive oil. Parboil the potato slices before frying them gently for a few minutes in olive oil too. Then put the layers in a fairly deep casserole - potatoes, followed by aubergines followed by the mince mix. Two layers will take up most casseroles. Make sure you have space left for the sauce topping!

Cook with a lid on in a moderate oven until you are sure the potatoes and aubergine are tender. There should be enough moisture in it to be bubbling up almost to the top of the casserole - add more white wine to achive this if necessary. Then take out of the oven and pour over the Bechamel sauce (to which you can add up some grated cheddar if you want a richer flavour).

Put back in the oven for about 15-20 mins until the top is browned. Serve with some French bread and side salad and a nice red wine like Chianti or Rioja.

Bon appetitie!

Savoury lamb mince (with pomegranate molasses)

Our son gave us a bottle of pomegranate molasses. I found this recipe while looking for ways to use it. It is really tasty, but a bit on the dry side. We used the baba ganouj as a sauce, and that worked really well.

1 teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons dried mint
1 bunch fresh mint, chopped (reserve a few sprigs for garnish)
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
50 g toasted pine nuts (reserve a few to garnish)
salt


Heat oil in a pan, and add the onions and garlic.
Cook over medium heat until golden and softened.
Add the lamb mince, and cook until all the meat has changed colour and it it well brownned.
Add the remaing herbs and spices and mix through.
Add the pomegranate molasses and pine nuts (remember to reserve a few), mix through the mince and leave to rest.
Serve with oven toasted Turkish bread and Baba Ganoush.
