Cooking minced meat in boiling water is a versatile, healthy, and flavorful way to prepare ground meat. Follow this detailed recipe to create a dish that’s perfect for meals ranging from hearty pasta sauces to stuffing for wraps or tacos.
Ingredients:
500 grams of minced meat (beef, chicken, lamb, or turkey)
1 medium onion (finely chopped or grated)
3 cloves of garlic (minced)
2 liters of water
2 teaspoons of salt (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon of black pepper
1 teaspoon of paprika (optional)
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter (optional, for added richness)
Fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro (for garnish)
Preparation Steps:
Prepare the Ingredients:
If the minced meat isn’t pre-seasoned, place it in a large bowl.
Add salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Mix well to evenly season the meat.
Boil the Water:
In a large pot, bring 2 liters of water to a rolling boil. Add the bay leaf for flavor.
Add the Meat:
Gradually add the minced meat to the boiling water in small portions. Stir continuously to ensure the meat separates into fine pieces and doesn't clump together.
Cook the Meat:
Allow the meat to cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The boiling water will cook the meat evenly and ensure it stays moist.
Add Onion and Garlic:
Once the meat is nearly cooked, add the chopped onion and garlic. Stir well and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. The onion and garlic will infuse the dish with a delightful aroma.
Skim the Fat (Optional):
If you prefer a leaner dish, use a spoon to skim off any excess fat or impurities that rise to the surface of the water.
Taste and Adjust Seasoning:
Taste the broth and adjust the salt or pepper if necessary.
Optional Add-In (For Richness):
Add olive oil or a small dollop of butter for an extra layer of flavor. Stir well.
Drain and Serve:
Once the meat is fully cooked and tender, drain the mixture using a fine sieve or slotted spoon.
Garnish with freshly chopped herbs like parsley or cilantro for a burst of freshness.
Serving Suggestions:
Pasta Sauce: Combine the minced meat with tomato sauce, herbs, and spices to create a delicious pasta topping.
Stuffing: Use it as a filling for tacos, wraps, or empanadas.
Rice Bowl: Pair the minced meat with steamed rice, a drizzle of soy sauce, and sautéed veggies for a wholesome meal.
Soup or Stew: Add the boiled minced meat to soups or stews for a protein-rich dish.
Tips for the Perfect Boiled Minced Meat:
Clump-Free Meat: Stir continuously as you add the meat to boiling water to avoid clumps.
Add Flavor: Enhance the boiling water with herbs or spices like thyme, rosemary, or a dash of soy sauce for added depth.
Batch Cooking: Boil larger quantities and freeze portions for quick use in future meals.
