Our homestyle beef rissoles are shaped fresh in-store from our own beef mince and rissole mix, never trucked in frozen from somewhere else, which means what you’re buying was made by hand on the same day you’re picking it up. They’re one of those proper old-fashioned dinners that never really goes out of style — the kind of thing a lot of us grew up eating, and the kind of meal that’s just as welcome on the table today.
How to cook them
They’re a genuinely quick family dinner, ready in under 20 minutes. Pan-fry, grill or barbecue until cooked through and golden on the outside. Serve them the classic way with mash and gravy for the homestyle plate everyone remembers from childhood, or pile them into a bun with the lot — lettuce, tomato, beetroot, a fried egg if you’re feeling indulgent — for a rissole burger that’s a step up from a standard beef patty.
Rissoles are also one of the most freezer-friendly things you can buy from us — grab a pack, cook half tonight, and freeze the rest for a night later in the week when you haven’t had time to think about dinner. They reheat well and hold their shape properly, which isn’t always the case with mass-produced versions that fall apart the moment they hit the pan.
Our recipe below, homestyle rissoles with onion gravy and buttery mash, is the classic version done properly — caramelised onions, a rich pan gravy, and mash with enough butter in it to make it worth the effort. It’s comfort food in the truest sense, and it’s one of the meals our regulars come back for again and again, precisely because it tastes like something made at home rather than something pulled from a packet.
Rissoles are also a great way to introduce a bit of variety into the weekly dinner rotation without much extra thought — they sit happily alongside roast vegetables, in a wrap with salad, or crumbled up over pasta if you’ve got leftovers and want to stretch them further. It’s an easy, budget-friendly way to feed a family well on a busy night.

| 1. Slice two onions thinly and cook low and slow in butter until deep golden and jammy, about 20 minutes.
2. While the onions cook, pan-fry the rissoles in a little oil over medium heat, turning occasionally, until golden all over and cooked through, about 12–15 minutes. 3. Remove the rissoles and rest on a plate. Stir a tablespoon of flour through the caramelised onions and cook for a minute. 4. Add a splash of beef stock and a dash of Worcestershire sauce, stirring until it thickens into a glossy gravy. 5. Return the rissoles to the pan to warm through in the gravy. 6. Serve over buttery mashed potato with the onion gravy spooned over the top. |
