Indian Pork Curry

Step 1

Place pork, sliced onions, garlic, ginger, ground turmeric, ground coriander, garam masala, red chili powder and coconut slices (if using) in a pressure cooker. Toss to coat pork in the ground spices. Season with salt. Cover the pressure cooker, and cook for about 5-6 whistles.

Step 2

Alternatively, you can cook pork over the stove top. Place all the ingredients in a large pan. Pour in 1 1/2 cups water. Cook over medium-high heat for about one hour or until pork is tender and cooked through.

Step 3

To make the tempered spices, heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Stir fry bay leaves, cinnamon stick and fennel seeds.

Step 4

Add onions, and sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 2-3 minutes or until browned. Add ground turmeric, ground coriander, garam masala and red chili powder. Stir fry for 1 minute.

Step 5

Add enough water (1/2 -3/4 cup) to make thick sauce. Season with salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Add cooked pork and chopped coriander (cilantro) leaves. Simmer for another 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Garnish with more coriander (cilantro) leaves.
