Fatty minced beef with tomato, pepper and onion is a Turkish-style pan-cooked dish: minced beef is browned with onion and peppers, then seasoned with tomato paste. Some home cooks add pepper paste as well, so the flavour can vary from kitchen to kitchen.
The mince stays rich and savoury, while the softened vegetables and paste make a moist, hearty mixture. In Turkey it is commonly served hot with bread, rice or bulgur, and can also be used as a filling or topped with an egg. It provides protein, iron and vitamin B12, but is also relatively high in fat. For a lighter meal, use leaner mince and serve it with a crisp salad.
