Instructions
  1. In a pressure cooker, mix keema, a tablespoon of ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, salt and a couple of glasses of water. Close and cook for about 4 whistles.
  2. In a wok, heat oil and add bay leaf, onion and green chillies. Sauté well until the onion turns golden brown. Add the remaining ginger-garlic paste, sauté until fragrant and then add tomatoes. Sauté until it becomes mushy.
  3. Add the chilli powder, cumin powder, salt and tomato ketchup, and mix well. Once the gravy starts to separate oil, add the cooked keema with stock or water. Increase the heat to high for about 5 minutes and stir occasionally to avoid it from burning. Cook until the gravy thickens.
  4. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with naan or rice.
