Ingredients

  • 1 pound pork meat diced
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 1 inch fresh ginger chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 tablespoon coriander powder
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1/4 cup fresh coconut slices optional
  • salt to taste

Spices

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 2 dried bay leaves
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
  • salt to taste
  • 1/4 cup coriander leaves chopped
  • chopped coriander leaves for garnish

Instructions

Cook The Pork

  • Place the pork, garlic, sliced onions, ginger, ground turmeric, ground coriander, garam masala, red chili powder and coconut slices (if using) in a pressure cooker. Toss to coat the pork well in the spices. Season with salt. Cover the pressure cooker and cook for about 5-6 whistles.
  • You can also cook the pork on the stovetop. Place all of the ingredients in a large pan. Pour in 1 1/2 cups of water. Cook over medium-high heat for about one hour or until the pork is tender.

Temper The Spices

  • To make the tempered spices, heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Stir-fry the bay leaves, cinnamon stick, and fennel seeds.
  • Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 2-3 minutes or until browned. Add the turmeric, ground coriander, garam masala, and red chili powder. Stir-fry for 1 minute.
  • Add about 1/2-3/4 cup of water to make a thick sauce. Season with salt. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the cooked pork and chopped coriander leaves. Simmer for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Garnish with additional coriander leaves.
  • Serve, and enjoy!
