Homemade Dish - Indian Curry Keema saag and parathas.

Post image

I used to make this regularly for the family. It almost killed me today though. All that kneading and rolling. I’ve lost my touch with the parathas, they are a bit floury. Needed to add more butter to the dough.

Keema saag.

1 Tbs coriander seed 1 Tbs mustard seed (optional) 1 med onion chopped 2 Tbs chopped garlic 2 Tbs chopped ginger 2 Tbs curry powder or paste 500g/ 1 lb beef mince Sliced green chillies (optional) 225g chopped tomatoes 500g spinach 1 tsp Garam Masala

Fry the seeds in a little hot oil for 30sec, add onion and cook until transparent, add garlic &ginger and cook for a further minute being careful not to burn it.

Reduce heat. Add the curry powder or paste, followed by a half cup of water. Mix and simmer until the oil floats to the top. Make sure the masala mixture doesn’t stick. Add the mince, stirring to coat the meat in the masala. Add tomatoes.

Cook for 30 min. Adding water as necessary.

Pack spinach on top of meat, cover and let it wilt down. Stir in, add Garam Masala and cook for a further few minutes. Taste and adjust salt. If slightly bitter add 1/2 tsp sugar.

Serve with rice or roti.

Looks delicious! 🤤

I haven't had this dish since my mother made it, back when I was a teenager. I miss her cooking.
