Sarah's Mince & Tatties

This is a variation on a recipe passed to me by my parents. It makes for a great, tasty and quick dinner.

1. 1

   1. Brown off the mince and finely chopped onion together in a saucepan making sure to break the mince down into small crumbly pieces. Ensure you mix through properly to brown all the mince. If the mince you are using is particularly greasy you may wish to drain off some of the grease prior to step 2.
   
   2. Add boiling water. Enough to cover the mince and onion mixture.
   
   3. Add the Oxo Beef Stock Cube by crumbling it into the pan. Then add the Thyme. Mix well and put on a low heat and simmer for 30 mins stirring occasionally.
   
   4. Whilst the mince is simmering peel and chop the potatoes, wash and place in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Add salt to taste.
   
   5. Cover pan of potatoes and bring to the boil. Once at the boil lower temperature, lift lid and allow to simmer for 20 -30 mins or until potatoes are soft and crumbly.
   
   6. Once Potatoes are ready turn off heat on both pots and drain potatoes.
   
   7. Add Tumeric to Mince, add Bisto Beef Gravy Granules stir well and leave to sit while you finish potatoes.
   
   8. Add butter and milk to potatoes and mash until soft and smooth.
   
   Then serve!
