If that doesn't work, then slowly simmer it for 20 minutes in beef stock.

I am guessing you're playing the PAL cart on an NTSC system (either with a disabled NES-10 chip or on a top loader)?

There is no fix.

There's two different PAL NES's that are incompatible with one another. There's a PAL A and a PAL B NES.

Mr. Gimmick is a PAL B cart
