Keema Matar is a flavorful South Asian dish originating from Indian and Pakistani cuisine, made primarily from minced meat (commonly lamb, beef, or chicken) and green peas (matar). It is seasoned with a blend of traditional spices such as cumin, turmeric, coriander, garam masala, and chili, often cooked with onions, garlic, ginger, tomatoes, and fresh herbs like cilantro. This protein-rich dish is a good source of essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, especially when made with lean meat. The inclusion of green peas provides a boost of dietary fiber, vitamins A, C, and K, as well as antioxidants. However, depending on preparation methods, the dish can be high in saturated fats and sodium, particularly if prepared with fatty cuts of meat, ghee, or excessive salt. For a healthier version, choose lean meat, reduce oil, and pair it with whole-grain bread or brown rice for a balanced meal.
