Ingredients (2 Persons)

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 2 pounds ground beef or lamb

  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Step 1
    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger and cook until the onion is softened and golden, about 5 minutes.

    Stir in the crushed tomatoes and yogurt, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the skillet and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Step 5
