- black pepper-4
- water as needed
- vinegar-3 tablespoon
- salt as needed
- garlic-5 cloves
- ginger-1/2 inch

Step 1) Initially, clean & cut the pork in chunks, then rub the pork pieces along with salt for drying the pieces off water. Put them beside.
Step 2) Then, make a paste for the pork curry. Blend together the vinegar, red chilies, ginger, cumin seeds, turmeric, garlic & chopped onion in a food processor. Utilize the paste to marinate the pork & allow it sit for about thirty mins.
Step 3) Next, put a kadai with moderate flame & put the marinated pork pieces into it. Now, drop the cloves, cinnamon & black pepper in the vessel & fry for around ten mins. (Tip: Oil is not needed to cook the dish, as pork fat is utilised for the same.)
Step 4) When the fat begins separating from the meat, pour some water in the vessel & combine finely. Put it covered with a lid & allow the pork curry to cook with low flame for like fifty mins, till the pork is tender. Decorate with a sprig of coriander leave.
