Ingredients:
1)Minced beef
2)1/2 peeled and chopped potatoes(depending on servings)
3)1onion(chopped)
4)chilli powder(1/2 tablespoon)
5)Cinnamons and Cardamoms
6)2 eggs
7)Rice
8)salt to taste
The Keema-Minced beef
Marinate the minced beef in half/one teaspoon of salt depending on serving.Add the chopped onions and the marinated minced beef in the pan.Fry and Stir.When you see a medium change in the colour of the meat add the chilli powder.Mix well.Add the chopped potatoes.Mix and add 2-3 cups of water.Stir a little and close the lid to cook in a light flame.Add the crushed cinnamons(usually a stick the size of your index finger) and Cardamoms (usually 4-5 pods) to the Keema while cooking.Mix well.Add salt to taste.Make sure to taste that the potatoes cooked and the meat is tender and taste appropriate as the adding of spices and salt all depends of the portion you intend to serve.
The Fried Rice (Bhath Bhaji)
Its best to use cold rice for fried rice as its easier to cook and makes it nicer.If you intend to cook everything on the same day then I must advice you to cook the rice beforehand and leave it to cool.Make scrambled eggs in the pan.Add a little salt to it and mix well then add the rice.Add the keema on top of the rice.If you have the gravy from the keema then please add it to the rice in the pan as it would make it juicy and adds flavour.Stir and mix well.I prefer not to use too much oil in my cooking so I add little amounts of water on the sides of the pan so the rice doesn't stick to the pan which is optional if the fried rice is ready to serve.If you want to make the fried rice richer add butter on the hot pan before you add the rice.If you can find Ghee (which is made from milk fat just as same as butter but the texture and flavour is much nicer),can also be used instead of butter if you intend to use it but mind you it would make the fried rice VERY rich.Add salt to taste.
The rice is ready to serve and would pretty much look like the picture above which I took for lunch to school.
Alright you can take this recipe and if you encounter any problems please don't hesitate to leave comments and seek advise.Enjoy the fried rice as many of my friends have.
Bon appetite!
