Add tomato paste and fresh tomatoes and mix well. Add seasoning cube and curry powder, and cook for 5 minutes.
Add the cooked beef and stir. Cook for another 5 minutes, then turn off the heat.
Get your dough and cut it into portions. Roll out each portion until flat and place it in a non-stick pan to heat up.
