4. Add onion into the pot and stir until browned (on a medium heat)

5. Don’t worry about the meat slightly sticking to the bottom of the pan and the meat getting a little charred (that actually adds a nice flavour to the meat – trust me)

6. Add the chopped tomato and stir for about 5-6 minutes

7. Add the curry powder and stir in for another 2-3 minutes

8. Add the stock cube

9. Add 1 cup of water and stir in for about 7-8 minutes
