Keema Masala

Here's a simple recipe for Roopak's Keema Masala:

Ingredients:

• 500g Minced meat (can be chicken, lamb, beef, or any combination)
• 2 Tablespoons oil or ghee
• 1 Large onion, finely chopped
• 2 Tomatoes, chopped
• 2 Teaspoons ginger-garlic paste
• 1 Green chili, finely chopped (optional, adjust according to taste)
• 1 Teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 Teaspoon coriander powder
• 1 Teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 Teaspoon garam masala
• Salt to taste
• Fresh coriander leaves, chopped for garnish

Instructions:

• Heat oil or ghee in a large pan over medium heat.
• Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
• Add chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
• Add ginger-garlic paste and green chili. Cook for another couple of minutes until the raw smell disappears.
• Add chopped tomatoes and cook until they turn mushy and the oil starts separating from the masala.
• Now add the minced meat and mix well with the masala.
• Cook the meat until it changes color and releases its juices.
• Add coriander powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well.
• Cover and cook the keema on low heat until it's cooked through, stirring occasionally. This might take around 20-25 minutes.
• Once the keema is cooked and the oil starts separating, garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
• Serve hot with rice, roti, or naan.
