Veal Mince And Lamb Mince

[Smowball]

Ive got 500g of lamb mince, and also 250g of veal mince(which ive never tried before)

What can I do with the veal mince as 250 isnt very much is it.

[EcclesCake]

I make my ragu using half veal mince & half pork mince

[Smowball]

But I dont have pork lol. Shame I cant mix it with lamb - think it would taste odd!

[EcclesCake]

I wouldn't mix them.

How about dinky meatballs?

[Smowball]

Yeh I'd thought of that. Very dinky indeed lol.

Veal Burgers ... ?

(I'm sure there is a poncy Italian name for them, but you know what I mean)

[Smowball]

La Veala Burga?? : )

[sunny-dave]

Probably :)

[EcclesCake]

When you bought it did you not think at the time that 250g isn't very much???

Make keema mutter with the lamb and leave the veal until you can pick up more veal or some pork mince.

[sunny-dave]

Please stop being sensible eccles - it's too early and my brain can't cope yet ...

[EcclesCake]

Don't get grumpy with me or I'll start SHOUTING just to make your head hurt a little bit more......

[Smowball]

lol, yes I knew it wasnt very much but thought I would just get a little incase i didnt like it. So there!

[EcclesCake]

I get your logic but now you have the quandary of not having enough to do anything with.

How about doing the keema mutter and making some veal kofte to have as a starter?

[Smowball]

Thats a good idea. Its just after watching some programme ages ago about trying to get veal more widely bought I thought i would try it. Think the programme was with that Jimmy, Jamie O's friend.

[EcclesCake]

I do have the odd good idea, some are odder than others :-)

Stuff some Romano peppers ( the long pointy ones ). Mix the veal with some partially cooked rice,oregano,basil,minced sun dried tomatoes,minced shallots and garlic, a grind of chilli flakes,and grated parmesan. Bake until the peppers are tender...about 45-50 minutes. Serve with tomato sauce.

As you eat the veal picture the calf looking at you.

[EcclesCake]

[pastafreak]

Yes wharton. You can now get responsibly raised Rose veal from British farms....no crates involved.
