This recipe is from one of my new favorite cookbooks, Extending the Table. The notes on this recipe say that this Swahili dish is served by a restaurant in the heart of Nairobi. I have only modified it to make the recipe fit into Zaar format, to preserve the authenticity of the recipe. This is a very mild, very easy to make curry.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 tablespoons oil
1 cup onion, sliced
1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 tablespoon curry powder
5 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon gingerroot, crushed
3 medium tomatoes, sliced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup water
salt

Directions

1
In a skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Saute onion and beef until browned. Drain fat.
2
Add in curry powder, garlic, ginger, and tomatoes and fry briefly.
3
Stir in the rest of the ingredients. Turn down heat to medium and cook for 20 minutes to blend the flavors.
4
Serve over rice or with Chapatis.

Really loved this recipe. It gave me some good notes in developing my own curry recipe, as well.

My son (11 yrs old) really liked this curry and that's why I'm giving it 4 stars. I love recipes that open up his palette to new and interesting tastes. The description said it was very mild and my personal preference would be to have a little more spice. It tasted a little bland to me. I would have given it 3 stars.

This was a very good way to do something different with ground beef! I did not have fresh tomatoes, only a can of stewed tomatoes which worked out just fine. I used the refridgerated tortillas instead of "chapatis"...which for all I know, could be the same thing!Will make this again for sure.

Very good, mild curry. I used a 14 fl oz tin of diced tomatoes instead of fresh tomatoes as tomatoes were out of season.
