Turn your usual keema curry into an amazing dish by adding few eggs to it. It will immediately take the dish into a next level. I also added some green peas, but it is purely optional. In this recipe, I have used chicken keema (mince).
However, you can also go in for mutton keema as per your preference. This is a great party recipe, where you can serve along with jeera rice, pulao, plain biryani, tandoori roti, naan or roomali roti. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.
