Cooking instructions

  • Cook in the oven or air fryer
  • Fry in the pan using a little bit of cooking fat
  • Place in a Ziploc bag for long term storage
    • If pan frying after freezing I recommend letting it thaw completely.

Notes and thoughts

  • Cooking method:
    • Pan fried.
  • Smell and Taste:
    • Smells heavily spiced but doesn't taste that spicy.
  • Texture:
    • Very interesting combination, on the outside it's browned and crispy.
      On the inside it's soft and juicy.
  • For the future:
    • Add some onions or carrots to help extend the supply of beef.
    • I would also add a small amount of bread crumbs since I noticed the beef
      shrinking.
    • Replace ground beef with ground lamb
