Keema Aloo Ground Beef And Potatoes Recipes

ALOO KEEMA (GROUND BEEF AND POTATO CURRY)

Steps:

• Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the oil, whole spices, and onions and sauté until the onions are golden brown (~8-10 min). Deglaze the pan with 2 tbsp of water.
• Once the water dries up, add the garlic and ginger and sauté for a minute. Add ground beef and cook, stirring often, until it changes color and the moisture dries up (~4-5 min). Use a wooden spatula to break up the beef into small pieces to ensure no lumps.
• Add the tomato, green chili pepper, ground spices, salt, and yogurt and continue to sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the tomato breaks down and the oil starts to separate from the ground beef. Add the potatoes and 1/4 cup water and stir to combine.
• Lower the heat to low-medium. Cover, and allow it to cook for 23-25 minutes (depending on the thickness of potato cubes), stirring once in between. The potatoes will be very tender.
• If needed, turn the heat to high and sauté out any extra moisture. Turn off the heat and add the garam masala (if using), lemon juice, and cilantro. Give it a quick stir and serve hot with rice, roti, naan, bread, or anything else you'd like.

ALOO KEEMA

Steps:

• In a medium sized pot, heat the oil to medium high.
• Add the onions and saute for about 3-4 minutes or until the onion is translucent. Do not brown the onion.
• Now add the ground beef, and cook on high heat, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes until the color changes.
• Add the ginger garlic paste, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
• Now add in the spices and cook 5-7 minutes on high heat, while stirring frequently, until you can see the oil stirring. This is called bhunnai (searing) of the ground beef and it's important to develop the flavour of the whole dish.
• Add the tomatoes and lower the heat. Cook with a lid on for about 10 minutes to ensure the tomatoes are cooked through.
• Now add the potatoes, green chili, and 1/4 cup of water. Cook for another 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. If you want more gravy in the curry, add about 1/2 cup of water.
• Finish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped coriander and enjoy with roti or rice.
