Introduce Yourself / Hello from another newbie
« on: September 24, 2012, 12:19:43 am »
Hi there everyone! I have had my thermie for a couple of months now and am loving it to death. I am in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne and am a stay at home mum to three little cherubs - two boys (6 and 4) and a girl (19 months). I have been stalking the forum for a while now so thought it was time to introduce myself. I have been enjoying cooking beautiful meals for my family without all the rubbish that comes with packets and jars! I look forward to getting to know you all.

Suggestions and Complaints / Cooking recipes with mince
« on: September 23, 2012, 07:49:55 am »
I have had my thermie for a couple of months now and love, love, love it! However I am hoping for some advice. My family is not a fan of any recipes made with mince. They don't like the texture! I haven't found it too bad, but the other day I made a chow mein recipe off one of the forums and even I couldn't stomach it and it ended up being fed to the dog. In fact, the texture of it was very much like dog food. So my question is, is there any way of cooking the mince so that it doesn't end up so fine and is more like it would be on the stove top? I have been using bought mince rather than mincing my own after reading mixed reviews about the mince made in the TM. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
