Spicy Kheema With Vegetables

What am I doing at this time of the day?? It's 3:19 am here -a silent night or a calm early morning- I can hear nothing else than people snoring at different volumes & types. I'm here at my mom's place at the capital (Abu Dhabi) and enjoying  the fullest with almost all the members of ma family except a few like ma bros and hubby. Should I miss them or be happy that i'm alongwith others?? I miss ma bro a lot now when just 2 days left for his birthday. He misses his Mom's food a lot and here I'm enjoying every bit of it.

This is something I adore the most among my Mom's cuisine.-a spicy kheema recipe which we can have both with chappathi or Kuboos. You can make it with a little gravy or dry as you wish. We made it a bit dry this time as we made dal alongwith it; otherwise we make it with a little more gravy to have it with kuboos.


 Ingredients:

Mutton/Beef/Chicken/Soya Mince (Kheema) 500gm
Cinnamon 1 piece
Cloves 3
Bay leaf 1
Onion- 5
Ginger- 1 1/2 "
Garlic paste 5
Green chilli 2
Tomato-3
Red Chilli powder 3tsp
Coriander leaves 1/2 tsp
Mixed Veg. of your choice
Pepper 1/2 tsp
Olive oil
Coriander leaves


Method:

1. Clean the mince and strain in a strainer.Chop the onions. Take a pressure cooker and heat some oil in it.Add whole masalas like cloves,cinnamon and bayleaf into it; then add the onions and saute till it turns translucent.

2. Add ginger-garlic paste and green chilli to it. Saute for a minute again. Add chopped tomatoes and all dry spices to it.

3. Mix the mince/kheema into this. Pour 1/4 cup water to it and then close the lid of the cooker. Cook for about 10 minutes after the first whistle or till done.

4.Boil the vegetables separately and add to it. You can use any type of vegetables. My mom used frozen mixed vegetables and potatoes this time. Dry up extra liquid in the dish till you get the exact consistency. Check the taste and add a tbsp of lime juice if needed.

5. Garnish with coriander leaves and drizzle some olive oil on top as we do for hummos.
