To remove the fat from ground beef, there are two easy ways to do it-cook in a skillet or in the microwave. Use these steps to learn how to remove the fat from ground beef in two different ways.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Cooking Minced Meat in a Frying Pan
Step 1. Spray or coat the surface of the pan with non-stick cooking liquid
Cook over medium heat while stirring the meat with a spatula.
Make sure you use a skillet large enough to cook the whole beef with enough room to stir it
Step 2. Add water to the pan containing the meat
Enough 1/4 cup water (59 ml) for 450 g beef. This will help keep the beef from scorching.
Step 3. Continue to stir the beef in the skillet
Don't forget to flip the surface of the beef.
Since minced beef crumbles easily, keep turning the surface of the meat so that none of the surface looks charred
Step 4. Toss and turn the meat over, and repeat until all the meat is lightly browned
Step 5. Drain the cooked meat
- Pour into a colander or remove excess water and fat from the pan into the sink with the help of a spatula to prevent accidentally wasting meat.
- Pour the meat on a paper towel or paper towel. Turn it over and place it on a paper towel or other paper towel to remove any remaining water and grease.
Method 2 of 2: Microwave Cooking Minced Meat
Step 1. Place the minced beef in the microwave
Place it so that the surface is as flat as possible. Add 250 ml of water to a container of meat and place it in the microwave.
Step 2. Cover the container with the beef with a microwave-safe lid
Step 3. Microwave on medium heat for 2 minutes
Check the meat again and if there are large pieces, crush them into small pieces. Repeat this process a few times until the meat is completely cooked and no longer pink.
Step 4. Use a sieve to drain any excess fat or oil on the minced beef
Cover with paper towels or paper towels to remove any remaining oil.
Tips
- Some recipes use onions when cooking them. Sauté the diced onions in the skillet before adding the meat.
- You can also add salt or flavoring to make it more delicious.
- To add flavor to the ground beef, replace 1/4 cup (59 ml) of water with beef stock.
