Keema Aloo (Ground Beef and Potatoes) is a delicious and comforting Indian dish featuring ground beef and tender potatoes in a flavorful, spiced curry.

Ingredients List

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

• 1 extra-large onion, chopped

• 2 tablespoons water (Optional)

• 2 pounds lean ground beef

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root

• 1 serrano chile pepper, finely chopped

• 2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro

• 1 tablespoon ground coriander

• 1 ½ teaspoons salt

• 1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin

• 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric

• 3 potatoes, peeled and diced

• 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes

• 1 cup frozen green peas

• 1 teaspoon garam masala

Instructions

Prepare all the ingredients before you begin cooking.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and starts to brown, about 12 minutes. If there are any browned onion bits stuck to the pan, add a splash of water and stir to loosen them.

Add ground beef, garlic, ginger, serrano chili, and cilantro to the pan. Stir and cook until the beef is browned and crumbly, about 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low.

Mix in coriander, salt, cumin, cayenne pepper, and turmeric. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes until the spices are well combined and the flavors meld.

Add the potatoes and tomatoes to the pan, then cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Add the green peas to the pan and continue cooking until the sauce has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Sprinkle garam masala on top, cover the pan, and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
