This British beef mince comes at a 30% Fat grade (70% lean) — enough fat to baste itself through burgers, koftas and slow-cooked dishes. Certified Halal and produced in the UK, it's sold in packs from 500g to 4kg.
What makes 30% Fat different from leaner mince?
At 30% Fat (70% lean), this mince carries more fat than leaner grades — it bastes itself, suiting burgers, koftas and meatballs.
How much beef mince do you need?
Buy by pack, not weight: 500g or 1kg suits a family meal, and 2kg or 4kg covers a karahi or freezer stock-up.
Storing this beef mince
Refrigerate until ready to cook, or freeze the day it arrives; frozen mince takes around 12 hours to defrost in the fridge.
Can you shape this mince into burgers or koftas?
Yes — at 30% Fat, it holds its shape and stays moist when you shape it by hand into burgers or koftas.
Think in packs rather than per-person weights. A 500g or 1kg pack suits a family meal of burgers or koftas, while 2kg or 4kg covers a batch-cooked karahi or stocks the freezer for larger households.
Keep this mince refrigerated until you're ready to use it, or move it to the freezer the day it arrives if it won't be cooked straight away. Once frozen, allow around 12 hours to defrost fully in the fridge, then cook it promptly — don't refreeze it raw.

Basis: 70% lean / 30% fat beef mince. Reference: USDA FoodData Central, "Beef, ground, 70% lean meat / 30% fat, raw" (FDC 168652).
- Beef karahi: fry the mince hard with ginger, garlic and tomatoes in a wok-style pan, then stir through green chillies for a fast weeknight curry.
- Burgers or koftas: shape by hand, then grill or pan-fry — at 30% Fat, they stay moist without needing extra binders.
- Bolognese: let it simmer low and slow with tomatoes and herbs; the fat carries the flavour through a long-cooked sauce.
This 30% Fat mince works well in beef karahi, kofta curry and keema, and just as well shaped into burgers, meatballs or simmered into a bolognese. The higher fat content carries spice and stands up to long cooking, so it suits slow-simmered curries and quick grills alike.
Can you shape this mince into burgers, koftas or meatballs?
Yes — at a 30% Fat grade, it holds together well when you form it by hand into burgers, koftas or meatballs, with no extra fat needed.
Do you need egg or breadcrumbs to bind it?
Not usually. The fat in this 30% Fat mince helps it hold its own shape, though a beaten egg or a spoonful of breadcrumbs makes smaller meatballs easier to form.
Why do burgers or koftas fall apart on the grill?
That usually comes down to leaner mince without enough fat to bind as it cooks. At 30% Fat, this mince has plenty of fat to hold its shape through grilling or frying.
How do you know the mix is ready to cook?
Chill shaped burgers, koftas or meatballs in the fridge before cooking — it firms up the 30% Fat mince and helps it hold together on the grill or in the pan.
