Keema karela Recipe: English – Urdu

For dough:

1. Plain flour – 4 cups
2. Yogurt – 125 g
3. Salt – 2 tsp
4. Sugar – 1 tbsp
5. Yeast – 2 tsp (activated with sugar and water)

For garnishing:

1. Yogurt – as required
2. Butter – as required
3. Fresh coriander – as required

Method:

• Mix mince with dry coriander, cumin seeds, chili flakes, turmeric powder, salt, red chili powder, ajwain, onions, green peppers, fresh coriander and ginger garlic.
• Cover and leave it in the fridge to marinate for half an hour.
• Add sugar and water to the yeast to activate it.
• While waiting for the yeast, take the plain flour for the dough, and mix it with yogurt, salt and oil.
• Add the yeast when it’s ready, and knead. Cover and set it aside until it rises.
• When the dough is ready, divide it into equal parts and roll dough balls. Let them set.
• Mix slightly melted butter with fresh coriander, and set aside, as this will be later used for garnishing.
• Now roll each dough ball with a rolling pin, and fill it with mince. Make sure to spread it evenly to get mince in the crust, as well.
• Close the dough ball carefully and let it rest.
• Fill the rest of the dough balls.
• Carefully roll each filled dough ball again, and press on the edges to get a crust, like a pizza.
• Poke holes with a chopstick or any other stick to make sure the naan is cooked right through the middle (and it makes it look nicer).
• Put the naan on a pan, and cook it from the base.
• Once it’s cooked from the underneath, move it to a preheated oven at 180 C, and bake on the grill until the naan turns golden brown.
• Garnish with butter and fresh coriander.
• Serve with chutney and yogurt creamy lassi, and enjoy.
