Good morning

Food looks lovely but regarding the mince...the 20% fat version you probably had is 6.5 syns per 100gr raw!
I know you think the fat has cooked out but most likely it was just water with a bit of fat in it...you can't make shortcuts like this, they will get you into serious weight loss trouble! There is a reason sw give you syn values. Cooking things in a certain way will only keep you from adding syns to your meal, it will never be able to take any away!
Please don't take this the wrong way, i'm just trying to help!
