With mince being such a popular ingredient in so many of our kitchens, coming up with new and exciting ways to whip up a tasty mince meal can be hard.

So it’s easy to get tired of having the same old spaghetti and mince dish for dinner. If you’re looking for some creative ways to turn up the tastiness with a rich mince dish, read on because Knorr has some seriously scrumptious mince meal ideas for you to tuck into.

Getting Creative with Mince Meat

Cooking with mince can be quite fun because there are so many ways for you to create the most delicious dishes. Aside from all the different ways to cook mince, part of what makes mince so popular is that it’s quick to make. This is largely because mince is simply meat that has been ground up in a meat grinder, creating small meat bits that cook quickly and easily absorb flavours.

Therefore, you can find so many different types of mince - beef, chicken, ostrich - so that whatever the mince dish, you can still enjoy the flavours of your favourite meat. When it comes to how to cook mince meat, there are a variety of options you can choose from. One of the most popular and possibly easiest way to cook mince is by frying. Some have asked, ‘is it better to fry or boil mince?’, and the answer is that it’s really up to your preference.

You can fry the mince with some garlic and onion, then add seasonings and stock pots like the Knorr Beef Stock Pot and soup powders like Knorr’s Brown Onion Soup to make a hearty pot of mince. To shave off some time and add layers of amazing flavour, use our Knorr Savoury Mince Dry Cook-In-Sauce or one of our other tasty sauce flavours for a memorable mince dish.

If a hearty mince and potato bake is something you’d enjoy, use our Knorr Garlic & Herb Potato Bake for a creamy, tantalising dish. If you’re still trying to think of interesting dishes with mince, explore our delightful Mince Mate range and take your pick for a mouth-watering mince meal. As mince is so versatile, you can use it to make burgers, meatballs or meatloaf. But for more exciting dish ideas, try out one of our delicious mince recipes below.
