Instructions

  1. Warm the oil in a medium skillet/frying pan over a medium heat. Add the cinnamon stick and cardamon and let them sizzle a couple minutes. Add the onions and cook for around 5 minutes until softened but not browning. 
  2. Stir in the garlic and ginger, cook a minute, then add the dried spices (coriander, turmeric, chili, cinnamon and cloves). Stir through to mix. 
  3. Next, add the ground beef (or other ground meat) and brown all over, breaking up and stirring as you go. Add the tomato and stir through. Season with a little salt and pepper to taste. Cook around 5 minutes or so until the tomato appears cooked then add the peas and water. Cook a minute or two more then serve. Often traditionally served with Indian breads such as paratha, also works well with rice.
