Ingredients

  • 1 kilogram ground beef
  • 2 onions medium size
  • 1 tomato
  • 2 tablespoons chopped garlic finely
  • 2 tablespoons chopped ginger finely
  • as required salt
  • 1 ½ tablespoons chilli powder
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin powder
  • 2 teaspoons coriander powder
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric powder

For Garnish

  • 1 tablespoon ginger julienned
  • 1 teaspoon chillies chopped

Instructions

  • Finely chop the garlic and ginger.
  • Sautee the chopped garlic and onions till they turn brown in a little bit of oil.
  • While that’s going on, clean the minced beef and prepare the spices
  • Once the onion turns golden brown, add the sliced tomato
  • And once the tomato has blended in, add the meat. Bring the heat to medium and continue sautéing. You’ll notice the juices from the meat coming out. Cover the pan with a lid and cook.
  • After 10 minutes or so, once you feel the meat is somewhat half cooked, add the spices and salt. You’ll have a little bit of liquid from the meat and that’s fine.
  • Continue stirring the spices until you feel the raw of the spices is gone. Keep the meat in medium to high heat. Take it for saltiness and add more if needed. Raise the heat and stir till the water evaporates. And there you have it, a quick dish.

Notes

  • You can try the same dish with mutton. Should work pretty well.
