What is Minced meat vegetable sauce?
Minced meat vegetable sauce is a thick, savoury sauce made by cooking ground meat with chopped vegetables, often with a tomato base. The exact vegetables and seasoning vary from recipe to recipe, so it can be adapted to what is in season or on hand.
The meat gives it a hearty flavour, while softened vegetables add sweetness and texture; it is usually spooned over pasta, rice or baked vegetables as part of a main meal. It provides protein, with the vegetables contributing some fibre. For a lighter version, use lean mince and add extra vegetables, or serve a smaller portion over vegetables rather than a large bowl of pasta.
