Sandringham

I took the bus down to Sandringham today.

See?  Non-yucky.
(a little blurry because the bus was bouncing)

I went to the Indian market, the spice store, and to three butchers.  I got spicy beef sausages, beef mince, boneless chicken breasts, a whole chicken, lamb shanks, and a lot of dry goods.  Now we're set for quite some time!  Here's Sandringham Street as I was hobbling back toward the bus stop under my 15-kg backpack.  Just a nice little suburb.
 


The lamb was what necessitated the three butchers--the first two places didn't have it in stock and I was getting nervous because there are only so many halal butchers in town.  But I did find it at the last place.  And you know what that means we had for dinner... NIHARI!!!

Beef mince?...Is that ground beef/hamburger or finely chopped/shredded or what?

Yes, it's just hamburger. Beef, lamb, chicken, whatever mince-- it's all just ground meat.
