Instructions

  1. In a wok or pan, heat a little oil and fry chopped garlic until golden add onion and ginger.
  2. Add in the minced meat and fry for 2 minutes breaking up the meat into small pieces. ( I use a separate pan to fry the meat and drain off excess fats, then add the meat to the onion mixture).
  3. Add potatoes, cook for further 2-4 minutes.
  4. Add the curry powder, water, sugar salt and pepper and simmer over a medium low heat stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until the potatoes are almost soft. (About 10 - 15 minutes).
  5. You may need to add a little extra water if there is no sauce left.
  6. Add in the mixed vegetables and coriander last and cook for a further 2 - 3 minutes until the vegetables are just starting to soften.

  9. Put some filling onto one half of the square.
