I fry some ground beef and when there enough rendered fat I add some diced
onion and minced garlic. Once the onions are cooked I add some cumin,
chilli powder, salt, pepper, dried chilli flakes, a bit of cinnamon, a bit
of sugar, some vinegar (enough to balance the sugar) and about a
Tablespoon of tomato puree.
