This super-easy savoury mince with vegetables is a classic one-pot dish, perfect for weeknight dinners. It is also suitable for meal prep and freezing!
Savoury Mince Recipe
Rich, savory, warm, and comforting, this old-fashioned dish is sooo delicious.
Making this recipe at home does not require any kitchen expertise; you can easily throw in the ingredients while following the steps, and the dinner will be ready in less than 30 minutes using only one pan!
I serve this dish with plain white rice. Aside from rice, you can also serve this dish with Gyro Bread or Rocket Salad with Parmesan.
You'll Need
“See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.”
Olive Oil. I use olive oil to saute the onion and garlic. You can use vegetable oil instead.
Minced Beef. I use fresh lean beef.
Garlic & Onion. Both are good flavoring agents for meat.
Dried Italian Herbs. For more flavor, I add these dried Italian herbs.
All Purpose Flour (Plain Flour). I add 2 tablespoons of flour to thicken the sauce.
Beef Stock. To enhance the flavor.
Tomato Puree. I add 3 tablespoons.
Worcestershire Sauce. It adds umami flavor.
Mixed Vegetables (Frozen). I use a 150 g bag of frozen mixed vegetables, mostly peas, sweetcorn and carrots.
Salt and pepper. To taste.
How to Make Savoury Mince?
One: Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat, fry onions and garlic until soft.
Two: Stir in minced beef, dried Italian herbs, salt and pepper.
Three: Use a wooden spoon to break up the mince; once the beef becomes brown, stir in the flour and cook for a minute. Then add Worcestershire sauce, tomato puree and beef stock.
Four: Simmer for 10-15 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally.
Five: Finally, stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and cook for 5 minutes more until the vegetables are soft.
Six: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
For Meal Prep: I divide the mince into portions, put them into airtight containers, and keep them in the fridge to use during the week.
For freezing: I prefer to use ziplock bags when freezing this dish as they lay flat in the freezer and do not take up much space. I keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months
