About

This clever recipe uses a ready-made smoky chipotle sauce and results in an intense, complex flavour. As it’s a midweek meal, I’m making full use of the ready-made accompaniments that are now in all the shops, but of course you can make your own if you prefer and if time is on your side.

Ingredients

25 g beef dripping
500 g minced beef steak
2 large

Main course
Gluten-free

Method

Heat a casserole over a high heat. Tip in the beef dripping and swirl it around to heat it up. Add the mince and sauté quickly until browned. Add the onions and garlic and continue to sauté for another 10 minutes, until the onions are well softened and beginning to caramelise.

Stir in the chipotle marinade and cook for 2-3 minutes, until sticky. Pour in the stock and espresso (if using)
