Layer your porridge with cream and a handful of these for a special breakfast. I make a big batch of these clusters in advance, and store them in a large jar next to our other breakfast cereals.
Joe and I are children of the eighties, and our mothers would have known versions of this recipe off by heart during the tough years of young families and high mortgages. It truly is a cost-effective meal. But, let’s be honest — there’s nothing better than a good old mince dish.
If your house is like mine and every May your freezer fills up with ducks — but then you forget about them and they sink to the bottom — this recipe will soon become a favourite. Serve with basmati rice, a good dollop of plain yoghurt and freshly chopped coriander if you like.
