A hearty, flavourful and nutritious curry dish. Pared-down ingredients and a simple technique, resulting in surprisingly deep and complex flavours. Goes VERY nicely with brown rice or wholewheat flatbreads. Compliments a fresh, herby salad well. Ingredients:
500 g extra lean ground beef |
500 g frozen spinach |
1 large white onion |
4 -5 garlic cloves |
1 scotch bonnet pepper |
1 (14 ounce) can chopped tomatoes |
1 tablespoon cinnamon |
2 teaspoons coriander seeds |
2 teaspoons cumin seeds |
1 tablespoon garam masala |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Chop the onion and crush the garlic. Slice the scotch bonnet into thin slivers and chop these finely.
2. Heat the oil in a deep-sided frying pan/skillet and cook the onions, garlic and pepper until soft. Add the minced beef and brown off.
3. Place the balls of frozen spinach into the pan on top of the beef. Cover and cook on a medium heat until spinach is softened. Stir thoroughly.
4. Add the cinnamon, coriander, cumin and garam masala. Stir thoroughly to blend in spices, then add the chopped tomato.
5. Increase heat and cook until the sauce reduces and thickens. Add salt to taste.
