Too spicy!

Ok, so i accidently added too much mirche in keema i made yesterday…so we plan to eat it tonight now aswell…anything i can add to the keema to get rid of the spice??

I know we can eat it with youghurt aswell, but I think I read on this forum that there is a way to reduce the spice..

please note, the keema was very bhoonafied…so has no oil/masala 2 remove…the keema has actually absorbed all the mirche…

cheers

Re: Too spicy!

put aloo in it? :hmmm:

or maybe make qeema biryani?

add some water in it ... to bring out some gravy .. that should reduce some mirch ... and add lots of potatoes or peas ...

I like what KB said , make keema biryani .. it will just taste yummy ...

Re: Too spicy!

a dough ball apparently soaks up spice, but you'd need to add water to loosen the keema first.

Or add a tin of tomatoes and cook it down and have it as a bolognese

Re: Too spicy!

Great ideas guys, Thanks...shall try out adding a bit more water.....even though husband wanted it really bhoonafied lol...but oh well!

Re: Too spicy!

whats bhoonafied?

you know preparing the basic curry masala , frying that entire thing is called khana bhoon’na aka bhoonafied .. :cb:

Re: Too spicy!

Easy. Make some more with no mirch in it and then add two of them.

Tabu, I got another idea .. why not add extra water in it , cook it for a few minutes , then drain majority of the water out of it .. that will naturally reduce the spices ....

Re: Too spicy!

add yogurt to the keema and potatoes as well.

other opetions:
serve with rice?

stuff it into a paratha?
make bland raita to be served with it.

Re: Too spicy!

Add some chopped tomatoes and sliced onions and covere cook for 10 mins. It will take away some of spiceness!

Re: Too spicy!

how do you make qeema biryani?

Do the usual keema drill , then add some biryani essence or if you use shan biryani masala .. ( just one or two spoons to get the biryani flavours ) … and then boil rice … once boiled drain excess water

then in a pot , spread the keema and then rice and make several layers of each … fry some onions and nuts and put thm on the top most layer .. if you have some yellow food colour .. sprinkle that on the top layer (mixed with water ) … cover and put it on dam … let it be for 15-20 minutes on light fire …

It should be ready … mix and serve and enjoy .. :cb:

Re: Too spicy!

add sauted onions, bell pepper, and tomatoes. it will make the keema delish and reduce the heat.

Re: Too spicy!

have you ever tried what the punjabi call missi roti, just add roti flour to the keema add a little water to it to make into a dough and then make roti from it, dont any oil to the thawa, but spread butter on the roti before you take off the pan, then eat it with yoghurt/ achar.
thats what i do with the keema the next day as we like to have something different the next day also doesnt take too much time if your short on time

have you ever made what the punjabi call missi roti, just add roti flour to the keema add a little water to make the dough. make the roti like you would make a pratha add no oil though as there is plenty already in the keema, but spread butter just before taking off the pan, eat with yoghurt/achar.
we usually make the next day as we like having somthing different the next day.
