Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 large Onion, finely chopped
- 4 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 medium Tomato, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 1 unit Green chili, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 unit Lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
Heat coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned, about 7-10 minutes.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, and chopped green chili. Mix well.
Add the turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine all the spices with the beef mixture.
Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low, and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Cook for another 5 minutes to evaporate some of the liquid, ensuring the kheema thickens to your liking.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot with lime wedges on the side for an added tangy flavor.
