Pakistani Kima
If you love the flavor of curry, you’ll absolutely love Pakistani Kima! This dish is literally bursting with flavors and is an amazing way to stretch a single pound of meat into so many servings.
Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil or butter
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 4-5 garlic cloves minced
- 1-2 inch chunk fresh ginger root peeled and finely diced (or 1 teaspoon ginger powder)
- 1 pound ground beef I use venison
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 28-oz can crushed tomatoes
- 3-4 large potatoes peeled and diced
- 2 cans green beans
- 4 cups cooked rice
Instructions
- Heat the 3 Tablespoons olive oil in a large electric skillet over medium heat. Add the finely diced onion and sauté until tender. Add in the diced garlic and ginger, and continue cooking and stirring for another minute.
- Add in the ground beef and continue cooking and stirring occasionally over medium-low heat.
- Stir in the salt, pepper, turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger (if not using fresh ginger) and cook for a minute or two to let the flavors season.
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes and diced potatoes and mix well. Put a lid on and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender. Add water as needed throughout cooking so that the mixture doesn’t get too thick (I fill up the tomato can with water and usually end up using about half of it).
- Add in the cans of green beans and stir. Put the lid back on and continue to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Serve over cooked rice.
