Place a heavy-bottomed skillet on the stove.
Set to medium heat and cover the bottom of the pan with water, stock, or a sauce. If you want crispy meat, use a little oil.
Add the mince and stir frequently, adding more of your chosen liquid if it starts to dry out.
Continue heating until the mince reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), around 3-4 minutes per portion.
Add more liquid if required and cover the pan with a lid.

If you plan to add extra veggies to your mince, you can cook these in the pan before adding the mince.

The liquid in the frying pan ensures you’re steaming the meat rather than frying it, so it doesn’t dry out.

If you want some browning and don’t mind the meat being a little dryer, then aim to fry it in some oil instead of steaming it.
