Beans with Minced meat

This recipe is another one of moms originals, great to eat with Daal, Bread (roti) or rice.

Ingredients:
1/4 kg Beans
380 gram Minced Lamb Meat
3 1/2 tbsp oil
3 onion (medium size)
3 tomato (medium size)
1 potato
1 1/4 tbsp Ginger Garlic paste
1/2 tsp Turmeric
1/2 tbsp coriander powder
1/4 tsp Red chilli powder
1/2 tbsp Salt (add more later)
1/2 tsp Garam Masala
bunch of coriander leaves

Preparations:
Clean the beans, and cut it them into small round pieces, around 7-8 mm each.
Cut the onions into slices.
Cut the tomato into small-medium pieces
Clean and then cut the coriander leaves intso small pieces
Peal the potato, and cut into small pieces


Directions
First, you want to make sure that your minced meat doesnt have any fat in it, you will do this by heating the minced meet in a cooking pot, for 15-20 mins the fat should form liquid in the bottom of the pot, after that the minced meat out leaving the fat in the pot.

We will be cooking in a pressure cooker, so take one out, put the oil in it, let it heat for a while, then add the onion, heat it for 10-15 min, till it becomes soft and the color changes, now add ginger garlic paste, turmeric, coriander powder, red chilli, salt. and cook it for 5 min, add the tomato, cook for another 5 min, now add the beans, and then add the the minced meat and the potato, cook it, because the beans has a high content of water, you should see liquid forming up in 15 min or so, if you still don't see it, then add 1/3 cup of water, close the lid of the cooker. and put the regulator (where steams escapes from) and cook it in medium fire. after the first time the steam escapes, slow the fire to the lowest. let it cook till the steams escapes the 2nd time from the regulator, then close the fire, let it for 15 min. Open it, cook on low fire, add the garam masala and coriander leaves, leave it for 5 min, and now its ready to be served.

Suggestions.
My brother was saying the spice wasn't that much, so i guess if you felt the same way, you can try adding more spice. Chears :)
