I love making this as it's so easy: just put all the ingredients into a bowl and leave for 3 to 4 days, stirring each day, then pot up. Usually I give most of it away visiting friends in the run-up to Christmas but try to save a jar or three to make a few mince pies and my favourite apple and mincemeat tart.
If anybody would like the recipe, just say and I'll post it another day.
A small and belated September update for 2024, where I am still, after many years' membership, on 365 Project, also now posting elsewhere but wanting...
@glenmoor Potted up today and one will soon have your name on it, Julian! (I seem to remember last year was a swap of a jar of my mincemeat for a jar of Helen's!!!)
@anazad511 OK I've just potted up the mincemeat so in my third album and in a little while, I'll post a pic with the recipe - it's so easy and very very nice.
What can I say nicely when it looks sweet and I don`t like the taste of sweet at all . ( I know there are a few people more with this ailment ) You pic of it looks great , a beautiful capture

I'd be pleased if I didn't like mincemeat or other sweet things!! Two of my family don't like it either so the mince pies I make with it are mostly for visitors.
