Soft, meaty, flavourful and ready in 30 minutes? This Keema Curry is a JOY I tell you.
The beef cooks in the curry paste and tomatoes to make a rich curry gravy, but using shortcuts to make this achievable even after work/school run/5 loads of laundry (just me?)
I often make a double batch of this and freeze the extras for an even quicker meal the following week.

FAQs on the Keema recipe
Is this an authentic Mince Beef Curry recipe?
No, this is my very simplified version of the keema recipes I know and love to be able make it with minimal ingredients in under 30 minutes.
If you’d like to try a more authentic version of the recipe check out this Mutton Keema Curry recipe by Swasthi or this Classic Keema Matar by Afelia.
Can I cook this Keema in the slow cooker?
Yes. Just add it to the slow cooker at Step 4 in the recipe and omit the water mentioned.
Cook for 4 hours on HIGH or 8 hours on LOW.
What is the best type of mince to use for this Keema Curry?
I use a 5% fat beef mince to keep it pretty light and healthy. A 10% fat beef mince will make it a little more flavourful.
You can also use a lamb mince or turkey mince. Both will work well.
Can you freeze this Keema Curry?
Yes this freezes really well. Just pack into tubs when cool and freeze. Then defrost and heat through thoroughly when you want to serve.
