Instructions

Marinate the Minced Beef

  • In a pan, add chickpea flour (besan) and dry roast for 4 to 5 minutes. Once it changes color and you can smell the aroma, take it off of the stove. Let it cool down completely.
  • Add all of the ingredients of marination into a bowl along with minced meat, and dry roasted besan. Mix everything and let it marinate overnight or for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a pan, add marinated mince, and cook it while stirring occasionally for 5 minutes over high heat.
  • Then lower the heat to medium and cook for 15-20 minutes.
    If you didn't marinate the minced meat overnight then add 1/2 cup of water and let it cook for 25-30 minutes over medium-low heat.

Smoke the Mince Beef

  • Burn your coal on a gas stove top for about 7 minutes, and change the sides to ensure it is burned from all sides. Now carefully place it in a small bowl or foil paper, and put it in the center of the pan.
  • Add a drop of oil and cover the pan for about 3 minutes.
  • Properly discard the coal.
  • Garnish your dum ka keema and enjoy!
