A blend of spices makes this dish not-so-hot, not-so-mild. Just perfect with a steaming bed of rice.

  • Ingredients:

  • Marinade:
  • 1 ½ tbsp (22 mL) fresh ginger garlic paste
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) Kashmiri lal mirch
  • ¼ cup (50 mL) white wine vinegar
  • 1 lb (454 grams) pork tenderloin, cut into 1”(2.5 cm) pieces
  • Curry:
  • 3 tbsp (45 mL) olive oil
  • ¾ cup (175 mL) onions, chopped
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) black pepper
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) cumin powder
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) cinnamon powder
  • ¼ tsp (1 mL) ground cloves
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) turmeric
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 cup (250 mL) water
  • Method:

  • Mix marinade ingredients together. Cover. Marinate for at least 1 hour.
  • Heat oil in a thick bottom pan on medium high heat. Add onions. Sauté for 5-8 minutes until golden.
  • Add marinated pork. Stir. Cook for 5 minutes on medium high heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Add black pepper, cumin, cinnamon, cloves and turmeric. Stir. Add salt and water. Stir well.
  • Cover. Simmer for 15- 20 minutes on medium low heat.
  • Uncover. Stir. Continue cooking for 5-10 minutes until pork is cooked through.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Serve hot over bed of steamed rice.
  • Tip:

  • Soak whole dry Kashmiri lal mirch in vinegar for 30-45 minutes. Grind. Use as a marinade for pork for smoky flavour.
  • Use ½ tsp (2 mL) each of ginger garlic powder as a substitute for fresh paste.
