  • Total Time: 1 hour 45 minutes plus marinating
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

– 500 grams of pork for base

– 4 to 6 crushed garlic cloves for flavor

– 3 tablespoons of vinegar for tanginess

– 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds for undertones

– 1 teaspoon of coriander seeds for depth

– 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds for heat

– 2 to 3 dried red chili peppers or 1 to 2 teaspoons of chili powder for spiciness

– 500g pork shoulder for protein

– 3 tablespoons white vinegar for substitute

– 2 tablespoons mustard seeds for pungency

– 2 dried red chilies for warmth

– 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste for aroma

– 1 large onion, finely chopped for foundation

– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for sautΓ©ing

Instructions

1-Dry roast mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and dried red chilies until fragrant, then grind them into a coarse powder to release their full aroma.

2-Heat vegetable oil in a heavy-bottom pan and sautΓ© chopped onions until golden brown, which enhances the dish’s sweetness and forms a solid base.

3-Add ginger-garlic paste and fry for 2 minutes to release aromatic flavors, blending seamlessly with the spices.

4-Incorporate the ground spice mix and stir for another minute to toast the spices, intensifying their taste before adding the protein.

5-Add pork pieces and brown them, sealing in juices for tender meat that absorbs the marinade effectively.

6-Pour in white vinegar and a cup of water, bringing the mixture to a simmer to mimic the traditional slow-cooking process.

7-Cover and cook on low heat for 45-60 minutes, until meat is tender and flavors meld, reflecting the 1 to 1.5 hours needed for authenticity.

8-For dietary adaptations, substitute proteins or adjust cooking time for plant-based options to keep the dish versatile.

9-Finally, garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot with rice or bread, completing the experience of this spicy curry.
