Here is the base recipe. For the beef version I use the same amounts of the dry spices when browning the ground beef. I reserve the ground beef in a bowl and use the fat left in the pan instead of the oil to do the recipe. Then I add the beef back for the 20 minute simmer
Edit, I buy Indian coriander seeds at the international market. They are fatter and smell like Trix cereal. Super fruity. I grind it in a spice grinder as I need it.
