qeema…specially aloo qeema…
me ko qeema nahi banana ata…“googling for a qeema tarkeeb”
Re: Qeema !
awww Kinzz … ok here is my recipe …
put two cups keema in a large strainer and pour 3-4 tbsp vinegar on it , mix it lightly and leave for 15 minutes … then give it a light wash under the water , like just until the blood is out of the meat … and leave it back for the water to drain out …
Now, chop or coarsely blend one large size onion or two small ones … and in a pot , add the onions, keema and half cup water … cook this covered on medium heat … after 10 minutes of cooking , add whole spices like three pieces cloves , black pepper, one stick cinammon … let it all cook through until the water has dried and you notice that the keema has let out oil …
If you cant see the oil , dont worry , just add two tbsp oil and start the bhoonofy process … do it for at least 15 minutes … then add one tsp garlic paste … after a minute add in one tsp ginger paste … keep bhoono’ing it .. if it sticks to the pan , give it a splash of water and continue bhoono’ing … when the oil totally separates , add in quarter cup water .. and immediately after add in the following spices :
- One and a half tsp salt
- One and a half tsp red chilli powder
- half tsp haldi powder
- half tsp garam masala
cook it all for five minutes .. meanwhile , blend 3 medium size tomatoes in a blender and add it to the keema … keep bhuno’ing it , until the tomatoes mix well with the salan … sometimes for added kick , I add one tablespoon of Shan Qorma powder or Achari gosht powder … jut one tbspoon , no more … at this stage you can also add one cup water if you like the keema thinner …
and if you want to add potatoes / peas/ simla mirch , add them at this stage … and cook them on dum … ( dum means , cooking on the lowest heat setting , while keeping the pan covered ) .. finally add corriander and green chillies and after two or three minutes of steaming .. you are done ![]()
TIPS :
The taste of qeema depends on how long you bhoono it for without burning it …
In the end , definitely dum the keema so the spices and vegies mix it well with the keema …
