Increase the heat. Add the meat, a little at a time, and cook for 3-5 min until browned on all sides. Remove from pan. Keep warm while browning the rest of the meat.
Chop half the red and half the green pepper. Slice the other halves into thin strips.
Add the yogurt to the pan, a tablespoon at a time, cooking after each addition and stirring constantly until all yogurt is absorbed.
Stir the chopped peppers and tomatoes into the meat mixture. Bring to the boil, stirring constantly. Cover the pan with a double thicknes of foil and then the lid. Simmer gently for 1 hour or until the meat is tender.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining ghee or oil in a frying pan. Gently fry the reserved pepper strips for 2-3 min or until softened. Scatter over the curry to serve.
