Mince

Crocodile mince is finely ground lean meat for sauces, dumplings, rissoles, and pie fillings. Colour stays pale; flavour is mild enough that herbs and spice define the dish. Without added fat or a saucy cook method, reduced mince can taste dry and pasty. Brown gently, add liquid early for wet dishes, and bind with egg and crumb for formed products. Cook through to a safe temperature. Works well in Asian dumpling fillings and fusion sausage recipes.
