Glad to hear that you guys liked Keema curry. If the spiciness is the issue, you may want to make first make less spicy version, then split and add extra spices for adults. Or maybe add a little bit of cream to make it milder, or marmalade (just like eggplant curry recipe) for a hint of sweetness. Experiment and make your own family recipe. : ) You can freeze fresh ginger by 1) peeling the skin off and store in a ziploc bag, 2) when you need it, grate frozen ginger with microplane grater. A Microplane is great for grating hard cheese, lemon rind, chocolate, etc. so if you don't have one, you may want to purchase it. (They have it at upscale kitchen store, BB&B, probably even at Target.) I like the skinnier one with smaller grates (finer results). I personally don't freeze ginger, because 1) I use it often in Asian dishes, 2) I buy small knob (or break it off) and keep it in the fridge so that I can finish it before it gets bad or dry. At a typical American household, buying a small knob and freezing it is probably a good idea. Hi Brenda,

Might take the kids a few more tries. It is definitely going on my list of go-to dinners. I love that the ingredients are all things I normally have on hand (except the ginger). Any ideas how to keep ginger fresh longer? Have you tried freezing it? Tried the Keema curry last night and it was a hit with us adults. Might take the kids a few more tries.
