    Keema Macaroni Recipe (Mince Macaroni)

    Keema Macaroni (Mince Macaroni)

     Pasta, for me, is the ultimate comfort food.  I love anything to do with pasta or macaroni, as they are my go-to on my lazy days. Today i am sharing a super easy Keema Macaroni recipe for busy weeknight Meals. One dish I make quite frequently when I have some mince is this one. Nice and simple, full of flavors.

    This ain’t your ordinary pasta. With flavors bursting out from every corner, this one is delicious! To make it more unique and give a distinct flavor, I have used my ever favorite Italian Pasta Sauce

    You can use any macaroni for this recipe, but I totally recommend trying elbow or something that can help hold all of those tiny pieces of mince. I used my favorite whole wheat pasta. Cook it al dente according to package instructions.

    While the pasta is cooking, saute up an onion and mince until cooked.  Then add in some garlic, herb seasoning and pasta sauce.  And once the pasta is cooked, drain and add it to the saute pan. I would add a dollop cheese or mayonnaise to make it more moist and gulp it down!

    Isn’t that to easy?? Easy enough even for a weekday night? Of Course Yes!!

    This is a really delicious pasta dish and the taste of the basil really comes through beautifully. The minced meat balances out the starch of the macaroni really well. A perfect dance of herb and spice ensues in your mouth…That you have to experience!

    As you can see, the recipe is just as good and vibrant and delicious as ever.  🙂

    Some Tips for the Perfectly Cooked Keema Macaroni:

    1. Never cook your macaroni in boiling hot water, it destroys the outer layer of the macaroni however you may not realize it. So, always throw in your macaroni or whatsoever in simmering water, a stage before boiling for best results.
    2. Always add a reasonable amount of salt to water, in which you will be cooking your macaroni.
    3. Once your macaroni has been boiled, strain it, take it out of the hot water and quickly rinse them in cold or regular tap water and the set aside. This stops the macaroni from further cooking, which results in soggy, dull and bland macaroni.
    4. Once you throw macaroni into your dish, let it cook and absorb the wonderful flavours of the dish, by letting it sit in the pan for 2-3 minutes with the lid closed and on slowest flame. Macaroni is bland, has no particular flavour so this step is very critical as well as rewarding.

    Recipe Note’s:

    1. You can use any pasta of choice , i like the taste of brown rice pasta compared to others.
    2. You can add veggies e.g. carrots, capsicum, green peas if you like. Everything in this recipe is optional. Go as you please. Play with flavours.

    This is a simplest kebab curry you can imagine. It can be made in a jiffy and taste great with either rice or roti. So good.

    Don’t skip the papaya paste . That’s the one of two ingredients that make the kabab so melt in mouth . The other ingredient is lamb fat . In authentic recipe kebab is used for this kabab , but beef would do too . If you can’t find the mutton or beef fat , don’t worry substitute it with ghee .

  • Kachnar Keema Recipe (Kachnar with Minced Meat)

    LET’S CELEBRATE SPRING

    Today marks the start of spring. Traditional rites and festivals of spring revolved around its importance in growing food. Plants start to grow and animals come out of hibernation and begin reproducing. People come out of hibernation too!

    I’m really excited to be back with another Traditional Pakistani recipe (if you didn’t see my Kachnar Gosht and Karela Gosht then I’d really recommend you give those a try too).

    So let’s celebrate spring with another Traditional Pakistani food (Kachnar Keema). 

     Kachnar Keema Recipe

    A Lil Bit About Kachnar:

    Kachnar/Orchid is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to southeastern Asia, from southern China west to Pakistan and India.

    Kachnar tree, Bauhinia variegate, is also known as Orchid tree or Butterfly tree because of the way it’s flowers look. This is a very popular ornamental tree in subtropical and tropical climates, grown for its scented flowers and also used as food item in South Asian cuisine.

    Varieties of Kachnar:

    Kachnar has three varieties (red, white and mauve) depending upon the colour of its flowers.

     Kachnar Keema Recipe

    Kachnar Keema

    In Pakistan, its buds are considered a delicacy. They are available for a short season only and are difficult and expensive to buy. Eating Kachnar ( Orchid)is very beneficial for our health as this vegetable is blessed with advantages and it taste is really good when cooked with addition of any mince meat(keema).  

    Kachnar Keema Recipe

    One thing I love about cooking is discovering new flavours that go together, especially when it’s flavours that you wouldn’t necessarily think to put together and today’s Kachnar Keema recipe is one of those creations.

    Kachnar Keema Recipe
    Photo: Kachnar Keema Recipe

    My take on a traditional Pakistani Kachnar Keema with lamb mince, kachnar buds, and served hot chapatai and Raita.

    I’ve been trying to perfect Kachnar Keema for a while, but I’ve always found that it was lacking a little something – it had meatiness from the lamb, bitterness from the kachnar buds and saltiness from the spices but it needed just a hint of creaminess. A few weeks ago on a whim (figuring that mince meat and yogurt go well) I decided to add some yogurt to my Kachnar Keema and the problem was solved – it is delicious.

     Kachnar Keema Recipe
    Photo: Kachnar Keema Recipe

    If you’re reading this and thinking “hmmmm, what would be the taste, or would I like this recipe?” then stop!! Whilst you can taste the flavour of the kachnar, it compliments the mince rather than overpowering it.

    Soooooooo…. convinced? 😉

    Extra-Bonus Tips :

    Before serving sprinkle lemon juice if this is to your taste. (I think it improves the flavour.) It’s good with naan, chapattis, or any other kind of bread, and Zeera Raita (Cumin Yogurt Sauce).
    This has Taste and is a Treat.
