Servings: 2
Calories: 658kcal
Instructions
- Add a tablespoon of water to the bottom of the steamer basket.
- Remove frozen mince from the packaging and place into the steamer basket.
- Add the lid and then place in the microwave. Microwave for 4 minutes on the defrost meat setting.
- Then remove the paper packaging if it was stuck the meat.
- Place the mince in the steamer basket back into the microwave and microwave on the defrost meat setting for a further 12 minutes or until the mince is fully thawed in the centre.
- Or you can speed up the process by removing mince already thawed from the edges to create a smaller block of mince and it will be done 4 minutes sooner using this method.
Notes
Swap – You can follow this same method with any mince/ground meat. I have demonstrated the defrost microwave process with pork but you can do beef, lamb, chicken etc.
