Today when I searched Hari mirch qeema on Cookpad, I found very different and unique recipes. Last time, I tried @cook_20987828 Asma syed recipe and this time I tried Mariam @sur_wah_kitchen recipe. Cooking style, ingredients and taste; all are different from each other. My main reason of choosing the recipe is without Red chili powder and tomatoes so I filtered my Cookpad Search and found this recipe. I haven’t used whole dry condiments before but when I use, it gave me a different aroma too. Actually it’s an alternative of pond garam masala and my qeema also didn’t turn to dark in color. Overall, I find a good experience as well as I realize that every cook’s recipe is different from other and we can make one dish in different ways.
