chicken mince----

anyone got some nice recipes you would like to share with me tia

from another thread;If it is from New World it will be fine, they don't sell the other stuff. I make chicken patties with spring onions, grated ginger and lemongrass. It is also nice in a canneloni. Cook finely chopped onion and garlic in a little oil (I think peanut is nice with chicken), add the chicken mince and cook, then add a splash of white wine (if you have/like it) and a little tomato paste and any herbs you like, I use lemon thyme. Stuff the tubes and make a tomato sauce (onions, garlic, tin of tomatoes and seasoning) pour this over the tubes, make a white sauce with a little parmesan mixed in and pour this over the red sauce and sprinkle more parmesan over and bake. I buy fresh lasagna sheets rather than the dried tubes because they are easier to stuff.
