Beef Keema
Submitted by: Sloop Foodie from Chicago, IL
Yield: 4-5 servings
Preparation Instructions:
Heat a large pan or skillet. (Concave cast iron preferred.)
Add spot of cooking oil and cook the ground (or minced) beef as you would for tacos.
Once beef is mostly cooked, add the add the onions and garlic. Continue cooking until the onions are slightly tender.
Add salt, cayenne, ginger, turmeric, fresh green chiles, fresh peas, tomatoes, and water. Bring to a simmer and stir every few minutes.
Simmer the dish until the water reduces by half and the flavors marry. Do not let the water evaporate as the dish can become dry.
Finish the dish with freshly chopped cilantro, red onion, and plain yogurt.
Accompany with warm roti bread and basmati rice.
Fairly easy to make. Definitely Delicious. Worth trying if you’re looking for an alternative to your meals with ground beef. I made a variation with half ground beef and half lamb. It worked! Served along with another recipe I found on the Spice House site for “Potatoes in a Creamy Curry Sauce”. Then I layered the two like a Shepherds Pie.
