Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 20 min

Step 1:
In 100% of cases, I will prefer homemade minced meat, which I recommend to you. Therefore, I wash the beef under running water, remove excess fat and films from the piece and cut the meat into small pieces.
Step 2:
Pass the meat through a meat grinder with small holes and preferably twice. So the minced meat will be softer after roasting. Believe me, homemade minced meat is a bomb!
Step 3:
Heat sunflower oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry finely chopped onion and garlic, grated on a fine grater. Fry for three minutes on medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Step 4:
Then transfer the minced meat to the pan and, stirring, fry it for another five minutes.
Step 5:
Wash the tomatoes and cut into medium cubes. Put it in a frying pan, add salt and pepper to taste, mix. At this stage, you can add any other of your favorite spices and herbs suitable for meat.
Step 6:
Under a closed lid, simmer the minced meat over medium heat until the tomatoes soften. Stir the dish periodically so that nothing burns.

Despite the simplicity of this dish, it turns out juicy, satisfying and delicious. Tomatoes give a slight sourness, minced meat is as soft and spicy as possible due to garlic.

Fresh tomatoes can be replaced with canned ones in their own juice. Then you will get a thick sauce. It can be successfully served with pasta.

Bon appetit!

For this recipe, it does not matter which part of the carcass to choose, since the minced meat will still become soft during cooking.

Beef can be replaced with any other type of meat that you like best. But keep in mind that the cooking time, as well as the taste and calorie content of the dish will change. Pork and lamb tend to be fatter than beef, and chicken fillet or turkey are leaner.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
