When I was around 7-8 years old, I went to spend a day at my best friend’s house for the first time. I remember her mom asking me what would I like to eat, and I told her I’d like to have lamb keema and steamed rice.

My love for this recipe goes back that many year, and I still cook it with a lot of love for my family. Here I’m sharing with you one of my most favourite recipes. Enjoy!

  1. I’m a carnivore who, as of yesterday, has a freezer full of this goodness. The first time I ate it I was like “Man, sometimes the food is so good I just feel like I could kiss it!” 😀 No, seriously.
