I don't have any cayenne pepper, will paprika do as it's only 1/4 teaspoon??

I don't see why not

I am making this for Wednesday nights tea and I'm so excited!! Am going to use extra lean beef mince as I also can't find lean lamb mince anywhere down here in Cornwall!!

 

[ColJack]

go to a butchers and buy some lean cuts of lamb and ask him to mince it for you ( or just bung them in the blender at home and pulse it until you get a smoothe paste.... )

got mine in the oven as I type.. will take some for dinner tomorrow.. gotta stop and buy a pitta on the way I suppose..

 

[Ness0607]

That's a good idea will try the butchers! Thankyou x

 

[ColJack]

yum, tastes just like the real thing, even with the substitution of paprika for cayenne pepper.. .. maybe a tad salty so half a teaspoon of salt would be better?

hard to carve though, you'll need a serrated knife or an electric knife to slice it.. ( or maybe a meat slicer if you happened to have one..)

I personally don't think it does. Lamb has a very distinct flavour, but it'll still be nice with beef. If you're wanting to fill a kebab shaped hole in your life, I'd definitely go for lamb for the ultimate experience, haha x

I always make it with lean minced beef - I also don't bother with the flour anymore to save on syns (makes no difference what so ever!!) & i actually add abit more cayanne pepper to make it slightly more spicey!

Another thing I do - I have reduced the cooking time & found that it makes it more moist, seems the longer its cooked it gets dry.

An absolute favorite in my house though

 

[gonnabesmall]

thanks girls will now go and hunt for some lamb,lol ;P

 

[Mumma K]

I hunted high and low for the lamb
and no butcher's either ( due to abundance of flipping Supermarkets )
So resorted to Tesco's extra lean lamb steaks, which I cubed and put in the Bamix machine with the other stuff omitting the flour and pulsed it on high to within an inch of it's life lol worked a treat now resting in fridge ready to be cooked tomorrow

Ocado (waitrose) sell lean lamb mince. Will be ordering some . A bit naive here but what is garlic and onion powder - is it the same as garlic salt and onion salt?
