BROWN THE MINCE
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and season.
ALL TOGETHER NOW!
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). When hot, fry the onion slices until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally).
