BEEF DRIPPING KEEMA NAAN

Add the onions, ginger & garlic paste and chillies, and cook for 5 mins. Add the mince and the remaining spices, and cook for 10-15 mins more until browned. Take off the heat and add the lime juice, then season.

KEEMA ALOO (GROUND BEEF AND POTATOES)

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion in the hot oil until soft and beginning to brown, about 12 minutes. If browned bits of onion are stuck to the bottom of the pan, stir water into onion and stir to loosen the browned bits.
• Mix ground beef, garlic, ginger, serrano chile, and cilantro into pan; cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbly, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir coriander, salt, cumin, cayenne pepper, and turmeric into the beef; cook and stir until flavors blend, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and potatoes, cover pot, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Mix green peas into dish and cook until sauce has slightly thickened and flavors have blended, 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle garam masala over the dish, cover, and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

STUFFED NAAN BREAD WITH MINCED MEAT (KEEMA NAAN)

Steps:

• To make the naan bread:.
• Sift the flour, salt, baking powder, yeast and sugar in a bowl and pour in the hand-hot milk, oil, yoghurt and the beaten egg and mix it all together to form a ball of dough.
• Place the dough on to a clean surface and knead it for 10 minutes or more, until it is smooth and satiny.
• Pour about 1/4 tsp oil into a large bowl and roll the ball of dough in it.
• Cover the bowl with a piece of cling film and set aside in a warm, draught-free place for an hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
• To make the mince stuffing:.
• Heat oil in a pan and on medium heat, fry the finely chopped onion, minced ginger and garlic till lightly golden browned.
• Add the mince meat, chopped chillies, spices and salt and stir fry till nicely browned.
• Add in the tomato puree and about 2-3 tbsp water and let the mixture cook thoroughly, stirring occasionally, till all the liquid have evaporated.
• Remember, NO LIQUID SHOULD REMAIN. If the mince stuffing is 'wet', it will be impossible to roll out the naans without bursting them.
• Keep aside to cool completely then mix in the chopped coriander leaves.
• Back to making the naan bread:.
• Pre-heat your oven to the highest temperature. Put the heaviest baking tray to heat in the oven.
• Punch down the dough and knead it again and divide into 8 equal balls.
• While working on 1 ball, keep the remaining balls covered.
• Flatten the ball using your hands (or rolling pin), roll it out slightly and then place about 1 heaped tbsp of the mince stuffing in the centre and pull the edges up, seal and shape into a ball again.
• Dust will a little flour if needed and roll out into a tear-shaped naan, about 15 cm in length and about 12 cm at its widest.
• Brush the top with melted butter.
• Remove the hot baking tray from the oven, grease it well with butter and place the naan on to it (I cook 4 naans in one batch).
• Put it into the oven on the top rack for 2-3 minutes. It should puff up and brown slightly (do keep an eye on it after 2 mins).
• Once puffed up and browned on one side, flip the naan and back into the oven again for another 1-2 minutes till the top of naan goes golden brown (keep an eye after 1 minute).
• Wrap the naans in a clean tea towel and serve hot.

BEEF KEEMA

Steps:

• Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook 1 minute longer. Add the beef and cook until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Drain off any fat.
• Add the coriander, cumin, pepper, turmeric, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of the salt to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the potatoes, yogurt and milk.
• Bring just to a boil. Cover the pan. Reduce heat to a simmer and simmer for 20 minutes. Uncover the pan and simmer for 5 minutes longer.
