Method

  1. Heat oil in a saucepan. Add thinly sliced brown onions and fry until golden brown and crispy. Cool on paper towel. In the same oil fry raisins until puffed up then cool as well. Grind cool onions and raisins to a paste then combine with blended ingredients (B). Keep aside.
  2. In a deep pan, add some oil, then add whole spices and saute until aromatic.
  3. Next add crushed shallots, fry until fragrant for 8 minutes on low, then add Latasha’s Kitchen Korma Masala Paste, ⅓ cup water and cook for 5 more minutes.
  4. Stir in pork, combine well with the paste over high heat. Brown the meat until no longer pink, for at least 8 minutes. Next add blended mixture from Step 1. Use 150 ml water to rinse out the blender and pour into the pot as well. Bring to a gentle boil, add in the potatoes and salt.
  5. Simmer covered until meat and potatoes are cooked, approximately 40 minutes. Sprinkle with Latasha’s Kitchen Garam Masala and serve.
