Qeema Piyaz/Mincemeat & Onion Fry
Qeema or mincemeat is such a verstile & easy ingredient to cook. And when it is liked by your whole family, it means its a win win situation for any household cook😍
This is my grandmother's recipe, so you all can well imagine how treasured it is for me & my family.
My go to recipe whenever I'm not in a mood to cook lengthy recipe 😀 & especially for week-night dinners.
We love it with home cooked soft phulkas or roti, but this is equally yum with parathas or boil rice.
