Slow cooking renders out the fat in meat. It rises to the top and can be scooped off with a spoon, or if you are making your dish a day or two in advance (slow-cooked meals reheat well and improve in flavour after a couple of days) the fat will harden on the surface in the fridge, making it easy to lift off and discard.
Ingredients
1 kg | Beef mince (Main) |
10 rashers | Streaky bacon, diced, optional |
1 cup | Grated parmesan cheese |
3 cans | Chopped tomatoes, 400g each (Main) |
2 | Onions, finely chopped |
1 large | Carrot, peeled and finely diced |
1 | Leek, white and half of the green parts, finely sliced |

1 Tbsp | Worcestershire sauce |
1 tsp | Ground nutmeg |
2 tsp | Salt |
1 tsp | Ground black pepper |
