Ela's Gosht Korma (Meat and Sauce/Gravy)

This dish has a mild and cinnamon-ish taste to it. Very flavorful and QUICK and EASY!

Meatballs or red beef (really you could use anything.
potatoes, cauliflower, etc. I use the Costco Roast-Meat from a can when I'm in a hurry!!!)

1 cup plain yogurt
1 med onion
1 can tomato sauce
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1 Tbs crushed garlic
1 Tbs crushed ginger
1 Tbs garam masala
2 Tbs olive oil
1 cinamon stick or pinch of cinamon (stick is tastier!)
1-2 cups water
2 tsp poppy seeds (optional)
1 Tbs ground coriander
fresh cilantro to garnish

**Heat oil w cinnamon stick for couple minutes (don’t
burn it!) Add ginger, garlic and diced onions and saute. Add all
other ingredients except the yogurt. (Add yogurt just before serving making sure to add it SLOWLY/whisk in so it doesn’t curdle.
Also, add water if needed to get an appropriate
consistency. Simmer for 10 minutes (the longer the
better) and serve over rice or eat w toasted Naan!
