   Meanwhile, peel and slice the onion thinly. Wash, clean and chop the chili pepper. Heat sunflower oil in a pan and brown the ground beef until crumbly. Season with salt, pepper and curry, add the onion and stir until translucent. Remove from heat, let cool and mix in breadcrumbs. Preheat oven to 180 °C fan.
