Ingredients:
450g minced beef
2 onions, very finely chopped
60g breadcrumbs (or oatmeal)
2 tbsp mushroom ketchup
salt and freshly-ground black pepper
dripping, to fry
300ml stock
1 hard-boiled egg, chopped
fried bread
Method:
Melt about 2 tbsp of dripping in a pan, add the onions and fry for 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in the meat and fry, stirring frequently to prevent clumping, until browned. Slowly add the stock, followed by the breadcrumbs and the ketchup. Adjust the seasoning to taste, simmer for a few minutes, until heated through.
Turn the mixture onto a plate and garnish with pieces of fried bread and a sliced hard-boiled egg.
