I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Ground Beef (Keema) recipe. I had created this fusion Indian meal for my kiddo when he was little because he didn't like his Indian food too spicy 🥵! Boy, how times have changed ! My not so little one NOW can gobble up more than 1 pound of meat in one meal and loves them SPICY! However, this dish is still one of our favorites due to its versatility!Â
It was one of those tired 😴 Friday night meals, where the thought of cooking was just too crazy 🤪 to comprehend! SO.. while rummaging through our fridge, I saw peppers, rice and Keema and thought.. why not? The dish was a hit with minimal effort! I hope you enjoy it this yummy fusion Indian hack too!
