After trying to get very low fat mince in Spain I have been making do with the standard mince from the supermarkets but everytime I use it I gain weight so I asked my OH for a mincer for Christmas.
He bought me the Eddington hand mincer from Amazon (thank goodness they deliver abroad). It is brilliant! Now I can do my own mince using cheap but lean cuts of beef/pork/chicken and I know it is FREE! and... as an added bonus it isn't made up of all the horribleness that normally goes into mince: connective tissue, gristle, fat, etc.
If anyone else is tempted to buy one I would advise you though to chop the meat into cubes first then only feed it through a couple of pieces at a time.
I can see a new year full of bolognaise, mince & onion, and a variety of meatballs and meatloaf.
Note: I've just seen they make a sausage attachment too - guess that'll be the next thing I buy!!
