Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes adjust for spice preference
  • 1 can 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish optional
  • Cooked rice or naan for serving

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  4. Sprinkle in the curry powder, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to coat the beef and cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices.
  5. Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juice and the beef broth. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
  6. Reduce the heat to low and let the curry simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  7. Add the frozen peas and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve the curry over cooked rice or with naan, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired.
