FUSILLI WITH KURMA PASTE

Ingredients:

3 cloves garlic

1 inch ginger

1 onion

3 tbsp kurma paste ( Rempah Kurma Adabi / Adabi Kurma Powder )

200 gm minced beef

1 carrot - sliced

1 celery stalk - sliced

5 button mushroom - sliced

300 gm fusilli

Method:

1. Cook pasta according to the box intructions. Drain and set aside.

2. Blend garlic, onion and ginger until fine.

3. Heat 3 tbsp oil in a pan.

4. Saute blended ingredients until fragrant.

5. Add kurma paste. Cook until oil rises to the top.

6. Add carrot, minced beef, celery stalk and mushroom. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until carrot is soft.

7. Add fusilli. 

8. Add salt to taste. Mix well and cook for 3-5 minutes.

Note: I always add fried onion to the fusilli as I like the taste of the fried onion in this pasta. To make the fried onion, you need 1 large red onion or 10 shallots. Sliced the red onion or shallots thinly. Heat 3 tbsp oil in a pan and add the sliced onion. Fry until onion is golden brown. Drain and set aside. Garnish the fusilli with fried onion.
