Traditional Mincemeat Preparation:


Method:

Making this is simplicity itself. Add the fruit and spices to a large bowl. Mix together then beat the eggs and add to the fruit. Mow add the remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly to combine. Don't skimp on the alcohol as they're important for the recipe. Use this immediately, as it will not keep.

However, if you would like to make a mincemeat that will keep, omit the eggs and add 200ml brandy. The resultant mincemeat will keep for serveral months in jars and is best matured for at least 3 weeks before use. Add 1 whole egg to a jar of mincemeat before use.
