About Me

My photo
I will attempt to update wartime recipes to modern tastes, in order to keep up with new trends, attitudes and approaches to food and it's preparation while still keeping a traditional British wartime feel to recipes. I will start by making recipes to the letter and move forward from there to encompass different modern diets. I will attempt to make meals first fit in to a popular diet plan and then will move on to Vegetarian/Vegan versions. So that everyone can enjoy British wartime recipes. This experiment is for my own amusement as well as to feel closer to my grandparents over the years they cooked and lived through hard times.

Mince Slices

A good way to use up leftovers and stretch out your mince.
Recipe:
4 slices of bread blended into breadcrumbs.
120g cooked mince
40g mashed potato (nothing added)
1 tbsp gravy
1 tsp mixed spice
1 small onion
Flour for rolling out the mixture.
Mix the ingredients in a blender. Turn out onto a floured surface and using a rolling pin, shape into a rectangle about 1/4" thick. Slice into squares and fry until browned on both sides. Serve with leek gravy, potato and vegetables of your choice. I did mash and peas.
