Cooking mince doesn't have to be complicated. Here are the methods that actually work: Stovetop Method: Heat 1 tsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat Add fresh or thawed mince, break into chunks with spatula Keep breaking apart as it browns, stirring periodically Cook until no pink remains (160°F internal temp) Microwave Method: Place mince in microwave-safe dish with colander Add 1/4 inch water around dish, drizzle Worcestershire sauce on top Cover and cook 2 minutes on full power Stir, then continue in 30-second intervals until done Both methods work great - stovetop gives better browning, microwave is faster. Store cooked mince up to 1 week refrigerated or 3 months frozen. #groundmeat #cookingbasics #kitchentips #Food #Cooking
