Easy & Tasty Mince and Tatties Recipe

Step 1

Dice the onion and peel and chop the carrots into circles.

Step 2

Heat a saucepan or pot to a medium heat, melt the butter and add the onions, cooking them until they are soft.

Step 3

Add the mince, using a wooden spoon to break it up so there are no big lumps.

Step 4

Add the flour and stir thoroughly.

Step 5

Add the carrots and stock/gravy. You should have enough to cover the meat. It will reduce through the cooking process but if it does so too quickly you can add a bit more.

Step 6

Turn to a low heat and simmer until the meat and carrots are tender and it has all thickened up. This will be approximately an hour. You can also cover with a lid if the stock is reducing too quickly.

Step 7

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 8

Meanwhile, prepare your mashed potatoes as desired (we like lots of butter and seasoning!) and then serve with any other sides like peas or skirlie.
