  • 1 teaspoon chili powder (optional, for extra heat)

🍲 How To Make Jamie Oliver Leftover Pork Curry

  1. Marinate the Pork:Put the diced pork in a container with a lid. Add the salt, pepper, oil, and turmeric. Cover the container, stir well, and refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight.
  2. Cook the Curry:When ready to make the curry, melt the ghee in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, for three minutes. Then, add the garlic and cook for an additional two minutes, stirring often. Next, add the chili and ginger, and mix well. Stir in the marinated pork and cook for two minutes.
  3. Add Liquids and Spices:Add the chopped tomatoes and coconut milk. Fill the empty tomato can halfway with water and add it to the pan. Stir in the curry powder, paprika, tomato puree, and chili powder if using. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring often, for 45 minutes.
  4. Serve:Serve the curry hot with rice and/or bread.

đź’­ Recipe Tips:

  • Use Fresh Spices: Make sure your curry powder, turmeric, and paprika are fresh. Old spices can lose flavor and make your curry taste bland.
  • Marinate Longer: Try to marinate the pork overnight if you can. This makes the meat more flavorful.
  • Adjust Spices: Taste the curry while it’s cooking and adjust the spices as you like. Add more chili for more heat or more coconut milk to make it milder.
  • Simmer Slowly: Let the curry simmer gently instead of boiling. This helps the flavors mix well and makes the pork tender.
  • Serve Hot: Serve the curry right after cooking for the best taste. It’s best with freshly cooked rice or bread.
