KEEMA MATAR

(Minced Chicken With Peas)

Minced chicken (Keema) is a very versatile product. It can be used in various dishes. Usually in our house, we cook Keema with Indian spices in a desi way.This recipe is simple and quite easy. However here the chicken keema can be substituted with mutton keema or any other minced meat. 

Enjoy the recipe :) :)

INGREDIENTS:

• 500 gms Chicken Keema
• 2 medium onions chopped
• 2 thin slices of ginger finely chopped
• 1 large tomato chopped
• 6-10 garlic cloves 
• 4-5 green chillis
• 3 bay leaves
• 1 1/2 Tsp kashmiri red chilli powder
• 3/4 Tsp tumeric powder
• 2 heaped Tsp Yogurt
• 1 egg boiled (for garnish)
• 1 Tsp meat masala (optional)
• 2 1/2 Tbsp Oil

Procedure:

• Make a paste out of the garlic cloves and the green chillis.
• Put oil in a pan, add the chopped onions and ginger. Cook till the onions turn golden brown.
• Now add the garlic chilli paste and cook for about 2 mins.
• Add the chopped tomatoes then, cover and cook till they are soft.
• Then add the red chilli powder, tumeric powder, Meat masala (you can avoid this), yogurt and a little water cover with lid and cook.
• When the oil separates from the masala add the minced chicken (Keema) and stir well. Cook on a low flame with the lid on, occasionally stirring the Keema.
