Start by washing 500 grams of ground beef thoroughly.

Turn on the stove and place a pot on it, adding 2 glasses of water.

Add the ground beef to the pot.

Sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 2 tablespoons of ginger-garlic paste, mixing well.

Cook on medium heat for 30 minutes, or if using a pressure cooker, cook for 15 minutes after the first whistle.

After 30 minutes, check the beef; the water should be mostly evaporated and the beef cooked.

In a separate pan, add 2 medium onions chopped roughly and 3 green chilies, and sauté for 2-3 minutes without browning them.

Add 1/2 bunch of chopped cilantro and sauté for another minute.

Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly before transferring it to a grinder.

Add 1/2 glass of water to the grinder with the onion and chili mixture and blend until smooth.

Return to the pot with the cooked beef and mix well.

In a separate pan, heat 5 tablespoons of oil and add 2 pieces of cinnamon, 14-15 black peppercorns, 1 large cardamom, and 4 small cardamoms, frying for 15-20 seconds.

Add the cooked beef mixture to the pan with the spices and fry for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the blended onion and chili mixture to the beef and mix well, increasing the heat slightly.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of dried coriander, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin powder, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of white pepper (if using), mixing thoroughly.

Continue to fry for another 2-3 minutes, adjusting the green chilies to taste if desired.

Finally, add the julienned ginger and mix well, ensuring everything is combined and heated through.
