  • Next, add the peas to the mixture, stir, and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, stirring regularly.
  • Add in the red pepper flakes, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt then mix well to combine with other ingredients. Cook for 1 minute.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened.
  • Add in the ground mutton, and cook, stirring regularly to break up the meat, for 4 to 5 minutes until the mutton is mostly cooked through.
  • Reduce the heat to low-medium and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring regularly.
  • Add in the water, and continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the mutton is cooked through.
  • Prepare the buns by splitting them in two and toasting lightly until warmed through.
  • Serve the keema with the toasted buns, a sprinkle of chopped coriander leaves, and a lemon wedge on the side.
