Malaysian Pork Vindaloo Recipes

MALAYSIAN PORK VINDALOO

Steps:

• Combine marinade with vinegar and a little water (I do not add water- I use the marinade as a rub).
• Rub well into meat and marinate preferably overnight.
• Fry onion in margarine for 2-3 minutes (at this stage I add in tomatoes).
• Stir in meat and bring to a boil.
• Add bay leaf.
• Simmer 40- 45 minutes until the liquid becomes a thick and rich sauce.
• Add salt to taste.
• (You can add a little water if you want more gravy- I normally add between 1- 2 tablespoons depending on how juicy are the tomatoes I add in).

PORK VINDALOO

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, mince garlic and ginger. Add vinegar, turmeric, cumin, chili powders and salt and blend well. Transfer to a large bowl, add pork and turn to coat well. Cover and set aside at room temperature for one hour.
• Place tamarind in a bowl with one cup hot water. When cool enough to handle, crush tamarind with fingers to extract pulp clinging to fibers. Add another cup of hot water and mix well. Strain into a clean bowl, discarding fibrous residue.
• In a large sauté pan, combine oil, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and mustard seeds. Fry over medium-high heat until sizzling and aromatic, about 4 minutes. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add pork and cook, turning until lightly browned, about 6 minutes.
• Add tamarind juice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until pork is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Add bell pepper and cook 7 minutes. Serve with rice.
