Mince and Pea Curry

Tired of the normal savoury mince dishes? Try something with a little bit of spice with this delicious twist on a family favourite!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 brown onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, crushed

2 tablespoons madras curry paste

650g beef mince

400g can diced tomatoes

1 cup frozen peas

Method

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes or until soft. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add curry paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until aromatic.


2. Add beef and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes or until browned. Add tomatoes and bring to the boil.


3. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until liquid has almost evaporated.


4. Stir in peas and cook for 1 minute or until peas cooked through.


Serve on rice with papadums.


Notes

You can change the heat of this dish simply by adding more or less of the madras paste. My husband likes it spicier, so I usually add another tablespoon.


Enjoy!
