Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by preparing all the ingredients: dice the tomatoes, finely chop the onion, and mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Cook the Onion and Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

  3. 3

    Add the Ground Beef

    Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Spices

    Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Tomatoes

    Add the diced tomatoes to the skillet, stirring to combine. Let the mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the tomatoes have softened and the flavors meld together.

  6. 6

    Finish with Parsley

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the savory spiced beef warm, either on its own or with flatbread or rice.
