Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry minced meat in a frying pan with tomatoes? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Fresh tomatoes can be replaced with canned ones in their own juice. Then you will get a thick sauce. It can be successfully served with pasta. Wash the beef under running water, remove excess fat and films if necessary, and cut the meat into small pieces. Cut the onion into small cubes, and grate the garlic or put it through a press.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pass the meat through a meat grinder with small holes, preferably twice. This will make the minced meat softer after frying. If you wish, you can use store-bought minced meat.

3. STEP 3

   

   Heat sunflower oil in a non-stick frying pan. Read about how to choose the perfect frying pan, as well as how to choose the right vegetable oil, in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe. Fry the onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

4. STEP 4

   

   Then put the minced meat into the pan and, stirring, fry it for another 5 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash the tomatoes and cut into medium cubes. You can first remove the skin from them. Read more about this at the end of the recipe. Place in a frying pan, add salt and pepper to taste, and stir. At this stage, you can add any other of your favorite spices and herbs that are suitable for meat.

6. STEP 6

   

   With the lid closed, simmer the minced meat over medium heat until the tomatoes soften. Stir the dish periodically to prevent anything from burning. Serve the finished dish hot. Bon appetit!

I prepared the dish quickly. The minced meat was made from lean pork. I put them on the frying pan one by one - first chopped onions and garlic, then meat and, finally, tomatoes (I took frozen tomatoes). I salted it and added ready-made seasoning for meat to the minced meat. Since the minced meat was not greasy, rather dry, and the tomatoes didn’t give much juice, I added a little water to the frying pan. I stewed the minced meat in a frying pan with tomatoes for 40 minutes. The recipe turned out to be a real lifesaver for me; it helped me prepare a tasty, satisfying main dish for lunch in a short period of time. The minced meat, prepared by hand, in combination with tomatoes turned out tasty, with a pleasant sourness, aromas of herbs and garlic. Thank you very much for the recipe!
