Aloo Keema

Ingredients:

Onions

Ground Beef

Ginger- grate to about 1 tablespoon

Garlic- grate or chop finely to about 1 tablespoon

Chili Powder

Coriander Powder

Turmeric

Salt

2-3 Tomatoes quartered

2-3 Russet Potatoes peeled and cubed

Heat a medium to large saucepan on medium heat. Add onions and soften until transparent. Add beef, ginger and garlic and raise heat to medium high. Cook, stirring frequently until meat is fully cooked and all water has evaporated. Add 1 tablespoon each of Chili Powder (use the kind from Indian grocery stores if you want your Aloo Keema to be spicy- the regular grocery store ones aren't very spicy), Coriander Powder and Turmeric and 3 tablespoons of water. Add Salt to taste. Stir mixture thoroughly until all meat is evenly coated with spices. Add tomatoes, fold in and cook about 10 minutes on medium heat. Add potatoes and one cup water, let simmer and cook until potatoes have softened. Serve with fresh hot naan, or top it on a hot bowl of kichiri.
