Apart from the traditional naga recipes, I love devouring this masala pork curry is once in a while with rice for a meal or with bread for a quick snack to kill the sudden hunger pangs.
INGREDIENTS USED TO MAKE PORK MASALA CURRY
For the chicken I have used meat with fats. When it comes to pork I love the fats more than the meaty part. I have used boneless meat but you can use with bone in, and thats what I like.
Honestly speaking I love any meat with bone-in compared to boneless. Meat with bone-in lends deeper, richer flavor to a simple curry making it super delicious.
This simple, easy and effortless recipe uses simple and basic spice powders which every Indian kitchen have in store like turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chilly powder, pepper powder, garam masala powder and meat masala powder. Few spices like cumin seeds, dry red chilly and bay leaf are used to temper. The other ingredients used for making the curry are mustard oil, freshly grounded ginger garlic, chopped onion, tomato, chunks of potato and salt as seasoning.

NOTES:
● You can use both garam masala powder and meat masala powder. If using both, use 1 tsp each. But if using only garam masala powder, use 2 tsp garam masala powder.
● I have used mustard oil, you can use any other cooking oil.
● Adding potato is optional but I love this Curry with potatoes.
● Yoi can add some chopped coriander leaves at the end.
● You can make a dry version instead of Curry following the same recipe. You just need to reduce the water and allow the water the evaporate completely.
