Dinner Tonight: Pakistani Kima (Hamburger Curry)

4/28/2014

Teresa Stebbins says that this is "an easy hamburger curry." The recipe comes from Doris Janzen Longacre's More With Less cookbook which "I've had since I was first married. The cover is worn off and many of the pages have food stains!"

 

Pakistani Kima (Hamburger Curry)

3 tablespoons olive oil or broth

1 cup chopped onion

1 clove garlic, minced

1 pound ground beef (or turkey or vegetarian crumbles, to make it lighter)

1 teaspoon curry powder

1-1/2 teaspoons salt

dash each: pepper, cinnamon, ginger, turmeric

2 cups cooked tomatoes

2 potatoes, diced

2 cups frozen peas and/or green beans

Heat the oil in a large skillet and saute the onion and the garlic. Add the beef; brown well. Stir in the remaining ingredients; cover and simmer 25 minutes. Serve with rice.
