Kheema is a Hindi word that means to mince. It's a nice & delicious way to include vegetables in your diet. Since the vegetables are minced or grated, the cooking time is also less. But the preparation time is a bit more as if you hand grate the vegetables, it does take time. If you have a food processor then using it will surely reduce the time taken to grate or finely chop the veggies.
