- Brown meat (if using) in batches and remove from pan.
- Heat remaining oil in same pan.
- Add onion, capsicum and garlic and cook until onion has softened, stirring often.
- Add spices and cook while stirring for 1 minute or until fragrant.
- Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes (you may need to lower the heat to prevent burning.
- Don't worry if it sticks to the pan though).

- Bring to the boil and then reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour (uncovered).
