I do quite a lot of minced based meals & never bother with the silicone sheets, I just 'dehydrate' in the cooking pot as much as I can then straight on the mesh trays once its cooled a bit.Yep all sounds about right, I was doing a fair amount of mince based meals and curries etc, hence the sheets, …..
Tip: if recipe calls for adding stuff that doesn't really need a lot of cooking (e.g. frozen vegetables, tomato paste, etc) reduce the liquid in the pot as much as possible, then add these near the end, it will help thicken the mass up to make spreading on the mesh practical.
