Instructions
Step 1
All you do is combine the above ingredients, except for the brandy, in a large mixing bowl, stirring them and mixing them together very thoroughly indeed.
Step 2
Then cover the bowl with a clean cloth and leave the mixture in a cool place overnight or for 12 hours, so the flavours have a chance to mingle and develop.
Step 3
After that pre-heat the oven is gas mark 44, 225°F (120°C), cover the bowl loosely with foil and place it in de oven for 3 hours.
Step 4
Then remove the bowl from the oven and don't worry about the appearance of the mincemeat, which positively swimming in fat.
Step 5
This is how it should look.
Step 6
As it cools time to time; the fat will coagulate and instead of it being in tiny shreds will encase all the other ingredients.
Step 7
When the mincemeat is quite cold add the brandy.
Step 8
Pack in clean dry jars, cover with wax discs and seal.
Step 9
It will keep in a cool, dark cupboard indefinitely, but I think it is best eaten within a year of making. For a classic traditional mincepie recipe see page NOTE: Vegetarians can make this mincemeat happily, using vegetariàn suet.
