Ground meat also be cooked in a sauce to make chilli con carne. "Keema" or "qeema" is used in a variety of dishes such as a stewed or fried curry dish of minced beef, mutton, or other meats with green peas or potatoes. It usually includes ghee/butter, onions, garlic, ginger, chilis, green peas and spices. "Keema" can be grilled on a skewer, and called "seekh" kebab, or used as a filling for samosas or naan. The word ultimately comes from the Turkic word "qıyma" meaning 'minced meat', and is thus related to the Persian "gheimeh", the Turkish "kıyma", and the Greek κιμάς.
Whale meat in water with much salt in it, dried fish, dried sheep meat, etc. Traditionally, whale meat was preserved by hanging salted pieces (called "likkjur") outdoors under a roof to be dried in the wind. This method is still used today, particularly in villages. Today, both meat and blubber can also be stored in freezers. In 2008, Faroe Islands Chief Medical Officer Høgni Debes Joensen and Pál Weihe of the Department of Public and Occupational Health recommended that pilot whales no longer be considered fit for human consumption due to the presence of DDT derivatives, PCBs and mercury in the meat.
