If using whole cumin seed, toast, shaking pan constantly, in a dry 10-inch heavy saute pan over medium high heat until aroma is released, about 1 or 2 minutes. Set aside. Heat a medium-size skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and water to pan and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, breaking meat apart with a spoon. Add garlic, onion, ground or whole cumin and the green chiles, stirring well to combine. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Cook for 5 minutes.
