Keema is a popular dish in India, made with minced mutton or beef and can be prepared as a curry or semi dry. It goes well with bread, chappati, paratha or rice.
For this preparation, I used Impossible Beef (which has no meat, but made from plants!) and added carrots and sweet potato as well. I also used Kashmiri chilli powder, only to give the dish a rich reddish colour.
When I first heard of Impossible Beef, I was really surprised to know there is no meat in it! According to Google, it’s made from proteins, flavors, fats and binders and they are all derived from plants. But it also says it’s highly processed. So best to eat in moderation 😉.
