Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easy Gluten-Free Keema Curry

  3. Stir in grated ginger and minced garlic, cooking for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add sea salt, cracked black pepper, curry powder, garam masala, turmeric, and tomato paste. Sauté for 2 minutes to bloom spices.
  5. Pour in fire-roasted diced tomatoes and coconut milk, bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
