You probably havent seen Qeema on Indian restaurant menus because its a home cooking meal.
But blimey, its a great find!
100% legit Indian flavours, 7 minute prep, 13 minute cook.
Get all the spices from regular grocery stores turmeric, garam masala, cumin, coriander and cayenne pepper.
Heres what you need:
Beef mince Thats ground beef to those of you in the States!
Im using lean today, but regular is fine (fattier juicier).
I also made this recipe a few years ago using chicken mince which was terrific.
Fresh garlic and ginger Key to flavour in this otherwise simple Indian dish, so dont skip these.
Spices Garam masala, cumin, coriander, turmeric and cayenne pepper.
it’s possible for you to get all these at regular grocery stores here in Australia.
(Skip if youre not a coriander fan).
But its entirely optional, so feel free to omit!
How to make Qeema
Saute Heat oil in a skillet over high heat.
Add ginger and garlic and saute for 30 seconds until golden, dont let it burn!
Add onion and cook for 1 minute until it is starting to turn translucent.
Add beefand cook, breaking it up as you go, until it changes from pink to light brown.
Add remaining ingredients EXCEPT water.
Cook for a further 2 minutes to let the spices bloom.
Then mix up the beef into the rice so it flavours the rice, then dig in!
Its also pictured above with flaky, buttery roti which I stuffed with the Qeema and rice.
I always have a stash of frozen ones which you might get at regular grocery stores.
I love them because they can be cooked from frozen in a few minutes how good is that!
Ideal to use for any and all Indian / South East Asian saucy foods, like curries.
I really hope you try this Qeema recipe, the flavour is so authentic!
