Ingredients

  • 500 g boneless pork (I use pork tenderloin)
  • 2 -3 tablespoons margarine
  • 1 onion, sliced (I use bombay onions - the big purple ones)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • salt
  • Marinade
  • 2 tablespoons coriander powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon ground fenugreek (this I omit)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder (this is hot, so use your own discretion)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon ground mustard
  • 2 tablespoons vinegar (I use Japanese Rice Vinegar)
  • salt
  • My Option
  • 400 g tomatoes, skin removed,seeded and diced

Method

  • 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).
