Ingredients

• 500 grams pork shoulder, cubed
• 2 medium ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 400 ml coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons curry powder
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder (optional, for heat)
• 250 ml chicken or vegetable stock
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy-based pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic and ginger, and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the curry powder, turmeric, ground cumin, ground coriander, and red chili powder (if using). Stir well to coat the onions in the spices.

Step 5

Add the cubed pork to the pan, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

Pour in the chicken or vegetable stock and bring to a simmer. Cover the pan, lower the heat, and let it cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Add the diced mangoes and coconut milk to the pan. Stir gently to mix, and cook uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickens and the pork is fully cooked.

Step 8

Taste the curry and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in lime juice for a hint of tanginess.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro, over steamed rice or with flatbread on the side.
