Prepare the Rice
Begin by cooking the jasmine rice according to package instructions. Set aside once done.
Sear the Pork
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed pork shoulder and sear until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Aromatics
In the same pot, add the chopped lemongrass and turmeric. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Combine Ingredients
Add the seared pork back to the pot along with the Massaman curry paste, coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, and water. Stir well to combine.
Finish and Serve
Once the pork is tender, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the curry over cooked jasmine rice and garnish with cilantro and crushed peanuts.
