Instructions

Fry Time
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
b) Halve, peel and finely chop the onion.
c) Heat a frying pan on medium-high heat.
d) Once the pan is hot, add the beef mince and cook until browned, 4-5 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

Get Prepped
2

a) Once the mince has browned, add the onion to the pan and cook until softened, 4-5 mins. Stir occasionally.
b) While it cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Simmer and Spice
3

a) Once the onion has softened, lower the heat to medium, add the North Indian spice mix and half the garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant, 1 min.
b) Stir in the passata, beef stock paste and water for the sauce (see ingredients for amount).
c) Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat if necessary and simmer until the sauce has thickened, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Toast the Cashews
4

a) In the meantime, heat another small frying pan on medium heat (no oil).
b) Once hot, add the cashews and dry-fry, stirring regularly, until lightly toasted, 1-2 mins. TIP: Watch them like a hawk as they can burn easily.
c) Once toasted, transfer to a bowl and set aside.

Finish Up
5

a) In a small bowl, mix together the remaining garlic and the olive oil for the bread (see ingredients for amount).
b) Pop the naans onto a baking tray, drizzle over the garlic oil and put the tray onto the top shelf of your oven to warm through, 3-4 mins.
c) Once the curry has thickened, stir in the peas. Simmer for 1-2 mins, then remove from the heat.
d) Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.

Serve
6

a) When everything is ready, share the minced beef and pea keema curry between your bowls.
b) Scatter over the cashews.
c) Cut the garlicky naans in half and serve them alongside for scooping.
Enjoy!
