Lean mince meat is finely ground meat, typically sourced from beef, chicken, turkey, or pork, with a reduced fat content compared to regular minced options. Originating as a staple in various cuisines worldwide, lean mince is commonly used in dishes like spaghetti Bolognese, tacos, and meat patties. Its versatility makes it a popular choice for home cooking. Nutritionally, it offers a rich source of high-quality protein essential for muscle repair and maintenance, along with key vitamins and minerals like iron, zinc, and B vitamins. The lower fat content makes it a healthier option for those managing weight or cholesterol levels compared to fattier cuts.
