Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a blender or food processor, combine the onion, ginger, garlic, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, cinnamon stick, peppercorns, and cloves with just enough vinegar to form a thick paste.

02

Step

In a large bowl, mix the remaining vinegar and water. Add the pork cubes and rinse thoroughly with the vinegar mixture; drain. Pat the pork dry with paper towels.

03

Step

In a clean bowl, combine the paste and pork cubes, ensuring the pork is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight.

04

Step

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the curry leaves until golden brown (2-3 minutes). Add the marinated pork, tomatoes, and turmeric. Cook, stirring until the tomatoes are completely softened (approximately 10 minutes).

05

Step

Season the pork mixture with salt. Pour in enough pork stock to ensure the ingredients are at least half-submerged. Bring to a simmer, cover the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the pork is completely tender (1-2 hours).

06

Step

Remove the lid from the skillet and continue to simmer until the sauce has thickened substantially (about 10 minutes). Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

For a richer flavor, use homemade pork stock.
Adjust the amount of vinegar to your preference. Some like it more tangy, while others prefer a milder flavor.
The longer the pork marinates, the more flavorful and tender it will become. Don't skip the marinating step!
Serve with basmati rice or naan bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
