Description

Pork vindaloo is an easy and delicious Indian curry dish with a Portuguese origin. It has amazing aromatic and spicy flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.2 kg pork shoulder ( cut into 4cm cubes)
  • 2 onions (chopped)
  • 500 g basmati rice
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cups of water (or red wine)
  • 5 cloves of garlic
  • 4 cm piece ginger
  • 6 Kashmiri chilies (dried)
  • 2 pieces of star anise
  • 1 tsp cumin (whole)
  • 1 piece cinnamon stick
  • 5 pieces of black pepper
  • 1 tsp mustard seeds
  • 4 cloves
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 2 tbsp coconut vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. First, prepare the vindaloo paste. Toast in a pan Kashmiri chilies, mustard seeds, cumin, black pepper and cloves. Add to your food processor ginger, peeled garlic, vinegar and a little bit of oil together with our toasted spices. Add a bit of water and mix.
  2. Marinate pork, adding 1/2 tsp of turmeric. Cover and leave in the fridge overnight (or at least for 3 hours).
  3. Roughly chop up onions, heat on, oil in. Add onions, a bit of salt and caramelize. In with a cinnamon stick.
  4. After onions are caramelized, add marinated pork pieces. Sear on high heat for 5-10 minutes. Add hot water or wine and lower the heat. Season with salt, pepper and chili powder. Cover and cook for at least 1 hour or until tender. Stir occasionally and add 1-2 cups of water, depends on how thick you want it.
  5. Meanwhile, cook basmati rice. I like to cook mine with 2 pieces of star anise for a nice aroma.
  6. Garnish with coriander leaves and enjoy!
