The only suggestion I would make is the onions need to be cooked till brown to get the full flavour. Browning onions is the secret to South Asian food. I cook the onions 5 minutes till translucent before I add the ginger garlic so they don't burn. Then cook them both till brown. Also cook the sauce till you see some oil separation, then add the meat. Just a suggestion to get the full "desi" impact :)

The biggest tip I can give to you Ethan is to learn how to make Daal. Daal=lentils but usually refers to a a thin and smooth lentil soup(textures/taste always vary between families, kinda like miso soup in Japan). Daal can be eaten like a soup but it's very popular to mix daal with the rice and then eat that alongside Keema or any other dish. Atleast where I'm from, we rarely eat dishes with plain rice as it's always accompanied by daal. Like I said there are some exceptions like butter chicken, biryani etc. and also if the rice is a seasoned rice, then there's usually no need for daal. Just a quick heads up and I highly recommend it for especially Keema. Daal, rice and Keema is probably one of the best things out there!

Isn't that just Haleem? I think that's inherently different from Keema.

Yeah we don't really have it as a main dish itself, normally it's cooked a lot drier (but spiced still the same, with cubed potatoes and peas) and mainly used as a samosa filling. I've experimented making more keema dishes with my mum by making it more sauce based (like in this video), and it's criminal we don't have this as a staple curry lol. Also try chicken keema, it's a lot drier so it needs slightly more oil during cooking, but it goes down a treat with more vegetables involved (peas, broccoli, carrots, potatoes, runner beans and bell pepper), as the chicken keema tends to reduce more during cooking, therefore leaving more room for other ingredients.

Keema is the best, and is the first Indian dish I learned to cook probably 30 years ago. I go the Julie Sahni route, so it's 2lbs lamb and a cashew nut butter (seriously, it makes a rich gravy), and I finish with lime juice. Still, can't go wrong with this recipe, regardless of one's riffs.

[@finsat]

Dude...you are really good at cooking "desi" food from the subcontinent. Ever thought about doing a culinary walkabout in India and Pakistan? Walking across the Wagah border point from India to Pakistan is an awesome experience.

[@BlackHawkTejas]

Wagah is on Pakistan side, Attari is the Indian side!! 👍

This guy does everything in the hardest possible way.

[@arunseigell7361]

Liam,I prsume U have passed puberty &so U should be well aware that hardest &doing it go together!

[@asadb1990]

to avoid the odd freezer flavour, i let my peas thaw in warm water.

[@arunseigell7361]

What a load of bollocks.freezer flavour????Try buying better quality peas,eg petit pois &just add them frozen to cook in the pan.Good quality peas dont ever need softening

[@ASunDr]

I made this with okra instead of peas, and 94/6 ground beef, and 'twas amazing. You da best

[@TheSlavChef]

0:01 THAT SLAP!

[@s1r3n1971]

Grew up on this stuff! But the way we do it is by frying it until the oil separates from the meat. It’s sooooo much more better that way. Enjoy! Thank you Ethan!

[@YashendraShuklaTheOG]

As an Indian me and my partner have a bet on whom Ethan is gonna marry. I say Indian, she says a Mexican. Whatever it is, his food game's on point!

[@kamcorder3585]

Plot twist: half Mexican, half Indian

[@YatriTrivedi]

Either way, they'll be using chilis, cumin, cilantro, and coriander...

[@AZyzk]

I bet a Polish with a wide palate just like his.

[@YatriTrivedi]

@@AZyzk haha fair!

[@TariqKhan-gl2zh]

Great Work, Ethan, you really show respect to my culture and your enthusiasm shines through, especially how you demolish the dish during taste testing! I make similar recipes handed down to me but all recipes are slightly different based on where they're from in subcontinent

[@henry651231]

I cannot help notice the wok you use. It looks nice. There is a "M" on its handle. Is anyone know what is that wok?

[@mikehueter3982]

Probably "Made In"...

[@CNP-rn3gd]

I have to thank you. The last thing I wanted to do tonight was cook; I had most of the ingredients and it was easy and came out well. You are my recipe resort!

[@b.r.jeethesh2056]

You can put this inside a peace of roti or naan and it tastes delicious

[@debapratimdhara1385]

I am an Indian student abroad. Didn't know about this, but will try making it coz it looks easy,

[@Pandaemoni]

Finally, a simple recipe that you can make with only about two dozen ingredients.

[@lukejustin1358]

Idk what it is but hearing seeing ethan eat is is way more satisfying that other you tubers you can tell loves it

[@petouser]

Here in Japan, Keema Curry is kinda in fashion. Also dry curry, which seems to be kinda similar too.

[@DelaAntoinette]

I made this recipe today using the exact instructions here and on your website and it is insanely good. Thank you for this video.

[@SJPYT]

2:24 Bro, nobody is stopping you from placing that box grater in a plate. This way you don't have to mop the table with tomato juice!

[@lucinae8512]

This is very first time I've seen someone on KZbin actually make something my mom cooks! We use this for samosas, but it still tastes like home to me.

[@dbeevr]

6:34 I really wanna buy you a ladle. ;-)

[@shubhamarutwar9396]

Thing i like about this channel is he uses authentic home recipes

[@AmanSingh-nw7lw]

Ethan has became the guy all indian mothers want for their daughters

[@peregrinefalcon5305]

i am commenting on your vids ...will like to mention ..love to see your enthusiasm in indian foods and like that u do it the right way after reading and watching content on it

[@utkarshsatyaprakash4383]

We don't have beef in keema, it usually is ground lamb and even pork is a decent substitute for it. You can also use chicken for Keema dishes.

[@nemesimp]

It also confused me. India we don’t eat beef. Beef is only consumed by the Christians here.

[@anmolmadan24]

@@nemesimp its also eaten in pakistan and they might be using beef and keema means ground meat so think any meat is fine

[@OrewaPein]

@@nemesimp nah beef is consumed In southern part of India and many other places as well.

[@ThatOneGuy7550]

Actually nice to see a cooking KZbinr explore Asian recipes like this tbh

[@nubin0807]

Got mince defrosted was going to make burgers, then remembered this vid, so this is getting made tonight

[@nn6380]

mixing the meat with water was such a good tip! I've never had such fine keema

[@suheeramujeeb]

I feel uncomfortable whenever I see someone pouring hot food in plastic containers even though I know that most plastic containers are safe upto 100°C. Edit: I use glass containers for storing food too🙂🙂

[@SuWoopSparrow]

Its uncomfortable because science doesnt "know" that its actually safe. Seems best to avoid plastics as much as possible and in a situation like this probably better to go with a Pyrex.

[@juju8470]

Doesn’t plastic leech into hot foods overtime? I would stick with glass containers like the guy above said.

[@4.0.4]

Ever since I saw a study that said "BPA-free" can also have other things that leech out (that just happen to not be BPA) I don't trust plastic with hot food. Glass gives me peace of mind (when it doesn't shatter).

[@balentay]

@@4.0.4 Glass just gives me Different Anxiety

[@bwest-yq3uc]

Me too..

[@techguy1678]

Love this dish! I used to ask my grandma to cook it each time we'd visit her back in the day.

[@moidhassan5552]

Indian Flatbread + Indian Ground Meat = ❤️

[@glennismade]

Growing up in London, you grow up with Indian cuisine being a staple of your diet. Keema has always been one of those foods that just lifts the spirits for me. A good lamb keema should me cooked in ghee, form a thick dark brown Sauce around the meat and top it off with a soft boiled egg. Now that’s heaven. I also now fancy a masala dosa. And keema. Hmm… brb, off up the local curry house.

[@jj_vc]

"Taste test time" *eats half of the plate*

[@AstorEzequiel]

If you see someone saying that and being about to finish the plate, you can expect it will be a really good review

[@qdog5921]

Reasonably surprised how authentic his recipe is. Well played.

[@petervansan1054]

Ethan: reminds me of home Me: but you are not Indian...

[@fireteam_]

Probably because half the meals Americans eat growing up are just versions of ground beef cooked in different forms, ground beef is super cheap here

[@DrRiq]

did u just assume his indianness (or lack thereof)

[@WaaluigiBoard]

@@fireteam_ I wish it was. 1 lb of ground beef for $5 vs a family pack of chicken thighs for $3.50. It’s often hard to go with the beef

[@zongzoogly4549]

Keema is quite versatile. I tried this with shredded paneer and it was delicious!
