Kiran cooks

This is a little how-to for Martin. So he can learn how to make Indian food. This is the recipe for saag keema (spicy minced beef with spinach) You will need, 500g mince, 3 cloves of garlic (cut small), 1 small onion (diced), tinned tomatoes, cherry tomatoes (halved), spinach (roughly cut), salt, pepper, ground cumin, ground garam masala, tumeric powder and hot chilli powder optional


Soften the onion and garlic in oil. Add cumin, salt and pepper.











Add the mince and brown off on a mid high heat. Drain off fat after mince is completely brown.










Halve tomatoes and add to mince along with tinned tomatoes








Add tumeric, masala and cumin to taste. Also chilli if you like it hot








Add spinach








And there you go! Saaag keema. Serve with Naaan, bread, salad, yoghurt, anything really. I had to ring up my grandma to find out how to get it right and she was very detailed and precise in her instructions. However, very displeased that I was making such a small amount of keema (half a kilo is apparently a very small amount!).
