About Lamb mince

Lamb mince is lamb meat ground or finely chopped into small pieces. It may be made from different cuts and can contain varying proportions of lean meat and fat; the texture is loose and granular, and the colour is typically pink to red when fresh.

It is used in cooked dishes such as patties, fillings and sauces, and takes on a cohesive texture when shaped or cooked. Products may be sold plain or seasoned, so the ingredient list matters. Fat level and cut source vary between mince products.
