Sometimes it’s the simplest of things that can warm you up and transport you back to your childhood. Funnily for us, mince does just that. For as long as we can remember this humble “cut” of meat has been a staple in our family. Whether it’s in our mum’s mince pie or good old spaghetti bolognaise, it has the power to soothe the soul and satiate a hunger for more than food. This week we decided to jazz up pork mince with a few herbs and spices.
