The secret to this recipe is the caramelisation. It is rare to see recipes made with mince that caramelise the meat but those golden brown bits are the crowning glory in this recipe. Served with simple, fresh salad vegetables, fragrant mint and fluffy rice it's sure to please even the toughest critics (especially the littlest ones) in the household.
