Keema Matar Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Indian Recipes. (Keema Matar Recipe). Before my husband and I got married, he found this recipe on the Patak's® Indian food website. We made it and loved it. But when I went to find it later, I couldn't! So this is a combination of what I remember from the recipe and other Keema Matar recipes that I found on-line. You can substitute chopped tomatoes for the paste, and add 1/4 -1/2 cup water to make the sauce. Serve over rice. Enjoy!
