2 medium onions, peeled and chopped<\/p>\n
4 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped<\/p>\n
1 inch by 1 inch chunk ginger, peeled and chopped<\/p>\n
4 T vegetable oil<\/p>\n
1 2″ stick cinnamon<\/p>\n
4 whole cloves<\/p>\n
4 black peppercorns<\/p>\n
1 bay leaf<\/p>\n
1-2 hot peppers<\/p>\n
1 T ground coriander<\/p>\n
1 tsp ground cumin<\/p>\n
1\/2 tsp ground turmeric<\/p>\n
1 large canned tomato or 2 small, coarsely chopped<\/p>\n
2 lb ground beef or lamb<\/p>\n
3\/4 – 1 tsp salt<\/p>\n
1 T lemon juice<\/p>\n
Blend onions, garlic, ginger with 3 T water into a smooth paste.<\/p>\n
Heat oil (medium).\u00a0 When hot, add cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns, bay, red peppers.\u00a0 When peppers turn dark, add paste from blender.\u00a0 Fry about 10 minutes, stirring pretty constantly, sprinkling water if it starts to stick.\u00a0 Add coriander, cumin, turmeric, fry another 5 minutes.\u00a0 Add tomato, fry another 2-3, add meat and salt, fry on high heat 5 minutes.\u00a0 Break up meat and brown.\u00a0 Add 1\/2 c water and the lemon juice.\u00a0 Bring to a boil and cover.\u00a0 Lower flame and simmer an hour.<\/p>\n
This was pretty nifty.\u00a0 And there seem to be about a hundred ways one could use this basic stuff… with vegets added as you cook it initially, or in tandem with other things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
