Goan Pork Night
Goa, a small coastal state in the west of India, was until relatively recently still ruled by the Portuguese - who were responsible for introducing chillies to India. India is now the largest consumer of chillies, and the Goans have a particular fondness for the spicy fruit. This curry is based on pork curries from the region (of which the infamous vindaloo is one) and often would be made a few days in advance to allow the flavours to develop. We’re serving the curry with delicious tomato rice, some seasonal crispy pakora and a cooling mint and coconut chutney.

Product Rating (3):
This was a really straightforward dish to make and tasted just like a proper curry house dish! Well worth it.
The flavour of the pork was very authentic. I marinated for several more hours than suggested which tenderised it more. Went very well with the slightly sweet fritters & complemented by the slightly bitter & spicy greens. Definitely one to impress friends with....when we are allowed!!
This looks amazing, Kamal - while you wait to have friends over, you're certainly impressing us in the meantime!
Delicious meal, I decided to go a bit easier with the chillies only using half of them, this was a good decision as the Goan pork would have been too hot using them all. We all loved the mixture of flavours especially the coconut chutney.
It's great to hear how much you enjoyed this dish - happy spicing!
