Beef & Mushroom Sauce
This sauce is an easy, quick meal when served on baked potatoes, noodles, rice, cauliflower rice, cabbage ‘noodles’, quinoa, toast or scones. It can be made with any minced meat – beef, turkey, chicken, lamb… or you can make it vegetarian by swapping the meat for two extra cups of mushrooms and adding some peas. Freezes well.
This can also be made in a pan on the stovetop, stirring with a wooden spoon until thickened.
(Photo shows meat free version, without peas.)
Inspired by a Sue Gregg recipe in “Meals in Minutes.”

Hi Jo, this was simple and inspiring last night when I had a pack of minced beef and needed a quick dinner. I added frozen peas and sweetcorn and used a diced aubergine instead of the mushrooms (because I didn’t have any)… typical of my inventing style! I also blitzed a red chili and a piece of fresh horseradish at the beginning, both of which added a lovely depth of flavour. Thanks so much for the inspiration, as always!

Sounds delish!
Hi Jo, can I use tapioca flour instead of the 6 tbsp of gf flour?
The Real Person!
Yep! (Sorry that was an old recipe!)
