Method

SHAPTA

  1. 1

    Marinate the pork

    In a large bowl, combine the pork with smoked paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Toss to coat evenly. Let marinate 15-20 minutes while you prepare the pan.

  2. 2

    Brown the pork

    Heat olive oil in a heavy-bottom casserole over medium-high heat. In batches, brown the pork on all sides until deeply caramelized. Remove browned pork and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté aromatics

    In the same pot, add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the remaining garlic and ginger, cooking 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Add liquids and simmer

    Return the pork to the pot. Stir in crushed tomatoes and water. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.

  5. 5

    Simmer and season

    Simmer gently for 25-35 minutes, or until the pork is tender and the sauce thickens slightly. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste) and stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Finish and serve

    Garnish with chopped fresh coriander leaves before serving.
