• Add oil in a pan when oil become hot, add cloves, cinnamon stick, cardamom and fry it for a while.
• Add finely chopped onion to the oil and fry till it turns slightly golden brown. Add ginger garlic paste and mix it well.
• Add turmeric, coriander and cumin powder to the masala and fry it for a while. Now add chopped tomato to the masala and fry it till oil comes out of the masla(if you want to use the ready-made keema powder then use it now).
• Add minced meat, chili powder and salt to the fried masala and mix it well. Fry it till the meat becomes half cooked.(Add 3-4tbsp of water to the chili powder and make it a paste, it will give a nice color to your keema. You can also use powder for color)
• Now add yogurt to the meat and fry it for five to seven minute in a low to medium flame, cover it till meat become tender.
• You can adjust your gravy by adding little hot water. Finally add garam masala and chopped coriander leaves.

Now your keema matar is ready to serve with naan/roti/chapatti/rice. I love to eat this with naan and raita.
