"I loved to eat kheema when we lived in Singapore. So I created this version of beef kheema with carrots. You can also add other veggies such as peas, bell peppers, brinjal or mushrooms. Add more or less tomato purée and water depending on the amount of gravy you like. You can eat the dish with rice, naan or with pasta as a variation of bolognese. "
