- 1 tsp garam masala
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro

Instructions
Finely chop the onion and tomatoes. Mince the garlic and ginger, and slice the green chili.
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
Add the minced garlic, ginger, and green chili, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the turmeric, coriander powder, and red chili powder. Stir quickly to prevent burning.
Add the chopped tomatoes and salt. Cook until the tomatoes become soft and start to break down.
Add the minced beef (or lamb) to the pan. Stir well to combine and cook until the meat is browned.
Pour in the water, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the pan and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Adjust the seasoning if necessary, and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve the mince meat curry hot, with rice or bread of your choice.
