INSTRUCTIONS
Heat the oil in a skillet or large frying pan and add the onions. Fry the
onions over medium-high heat until they turn caramel brown (about 10
minutes), stirring constantly to ensure even browning. Add garlic, ginger,
and green chilies, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Add lamb or beef,
and cook until the meat loses its pink color and begins to brown. Sprinkle
cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, turmeric and salt over the meat, stir for a
moment or two, and then add 1/4 cup hot water. Reduce heat, cover, and let
the meat cook thoroughly for about 25 minutes, stirring the mixture often
to prevent burning. (The moisture should be totally absorbed; if it is not,
uncover the pan, increase the heat, and cook until all the moisture has
evaporated.) Turn off heat and stir in garam masala, lemon juice, and
chopped coriander. Lay out a sheet of filo dough, brush it with butter,
repeat 3 more times. Cut into 4 long strips. Place keema at the base of one
strip and fold up like a flag into a triangle. Repeat with the second
strip. Continue in this fashion and use up all the keema. Fry filo
triangles in a deep-fat fryer with oil at 375 degrees. This recipe yields 4
servings.
