Pork Mince recipes

[Gaz3376]

Picked up a few kilo's of reduced pork mince from Sainsburys last night.

Any ideas for a nice recipe?

A friend of mine used to make a really delicious, simple Thai pork mince dish. Served in lettuce leaves. There seem to be a lot of thai style mince recipes around, but this one was very sweet, sour from lime juice & vinegar, seasoned with the usual fish sauce, ginger, garlic, lemongrass and holy basil leaves. Yum.

Or else - use instead of or with beef mince for bolognese/lasagne?

I would have thought you could make a nice bit of meatloaf too, and meatballs?

Have cooked this a few times and it's a winner.. gets scoffed in our house anyway!

Bolognese? https://thepaddingtonfoodie.com/2012/10/24/bologne...

I use this recipe, with some minor tweaks (no veal or fresh mint). Cook a large pot full and then decant individual portions to zip-lock bags and freeze.

I use pork mince with beef mince for meatballs, you could also add some to a chilli to make it lighter.

Whizz up the pork mince with some sage or herbs of your choice.

Roll into a sausage about two inches across. Wrap in puff pastry.

Make some huge sausage rolls.

This Sichuan recipe works really well and the ingredients aren't hard to find.

I love the name also (the bits of pork sticking to the noodles look like ants climbing a tree).

Jamies Green Chilli

its honestly great and completely different to a standard chilli, much fresher, rather than chilli sauce and sour crème, have it with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of coriander

Some good idea there already.

I've made good burgers with pork before. Just pork with seasoning and a bit of sage and thyme, a slice of grilled or fried apple and some brie going soft(er) on top. It's better with a brioche bun.

It might be an idea to make one to test if you plan doing these as supermarket pork mince can be really fatty/wet so you get quite a lot of shrinkage when you're cooking the burgers.

Mrs v has been cooking her version of this for about ten years or so. It is bloody delicious!

I make a Thai thingy and serve with noodles. You can just substitute it for Beef mince though.

I'll be making this later, pork mince, streaky bacon & pork liver (97p for 400g from Sainsbury's)

A tasty cheap starter.

We've been making our version of this for the last few years and it is surprising how 'bloody delicious' it is, who would have thought pork mince wrapped in a lettuce leaf could be so good! Healthy too.

"IF" you like it, try adding some Black Pudding too

[jas xjr]

not overly keen on black pudding but it might work out in some of these, only one way to find out
