After a suggestion by Wigan White I've started this thread off with a post from ChilwellWhite.

Spiced Beef Keema:
Serves 2 (double up, for more!)
225 g ground beef
- 200 g potatoes
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- 1½ tsp garam masala
- ½ onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 10 g ginger
- 1 green chilis (optional, plus another to garnish if you want)
- ½ tbsp oil
- ½ tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 250 ml water
- 75 g frozen peas
- salt
- cane sugar
- pepper
- coriander (for serving)
- lemon juice (for serving)
- basmati rice (for serving)
Chop onion, garlic, ginger and one Chili, and mix well together (I use a chopper or similar here because I’m lazy).
Peel the potatoes, chop into quarters and set aside.
Hear the oil and butter in a heavy pot with a lid for a few minutes, then add the combined onion, garlic, ginger and Chili, add a bit of salt and cook on a medium heat for five minutes until nice and soft, stirring occasionally.
Add the mince, whack the heat up to high, and keep working it through with a wooden spoon until it is nicely browned (8-10 minutes tops).
Add the turmeric and Garam masala (and more Chili if you want) and fry for one minute.
Add the potatoes, stir well to mix it all in, then add the water and deglaze the pot.
Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover with the lid and simmer for around 20 minutes.
Add the frozen peas, and simmer for a further 10 minutes with the lid on, until the peas are cooked through.
Add a bit of salt and pepper and a pinch or two of cane sugar, give it all another stir and add fresh lemon juice to taste.
Serve with basmati rice, and shower with fresh coriander.
