MICROWAVE ANGLO-INDIAN MINCE FRY

 MICROWAVE ANGLO-INDIAN MINCE FRY

This is a quick and easy dish to cook when one has a packet of mince handy in the fridge but not too keen on making a Ball Curry. This simple and tasty dish could be made in no time at all in your microwave oven and it could be eaten with Rice or Chapattis. Any meat mince such as beef, mutton, lamb, pork or even chicken mince could be used. Green Peas, chopped cabbage, carrot, cauliflower, fenugreek / methi / venthium greens etc., could be added to give the dish a twist. This recipe is featured in my new Cookery Book THE MICROWAVE COOK BOOK OF ANGLO-INDIAN RECIPES
