Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 ts Whole cumin seeds 1 ts Brown sugar
2 Hot, dried red chilies 5 tb Vegetable oil
1 ts Black pepper corns 2 Medium onions cut into rings
1 ts Cardamom seeds 1 1/3 c Water
3 In stick cinnamon 2 lb Pork cut into 1" cubes
1 1/2 ts Black mustard seeds 1 One in cube ginger chopped
1 ts Fenugreek seeds 8 Cloves garlic peeled
5 tb White wine vinegar 1 tb Ground coriander seeds
1 1/2 ts Salt 1/2 ts Turmeric

Grind cumin seeds, red chilies, peppercorns, cardamom seeds, cinnamon,
black mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds in a coffee-grinder or other
spice grinder. Put the ground spices in a bowl. Add the vinegar, salt and
sugar. Mix and set aside. Heat the oil in a wide, heavy pot over a medium
flame. Put in the onions. Fry, stirring frequently, until the onions turn
brown and crisp. Remove the onions with a slotted spoon and put them into
the container of an electric blender or food processor. (Turn off the
heat.) Add 2-3 tablespoons of water to the blender and puree the onions.
Add this puree to the ground spices in the bowl. (This is the vindaloo
paste. It may be made ahead of time and frozen.) Dry off the meat cubes
with a paper towel and remove large pieces of fat, if any. Put the ginger
and garlic into the container of an electric blender or food processor. Add
2-3 tablespoons of water and blend until you have a smooth paste. Heat the
oil remaining in the pot once again over a medium-high flame. When hot, put
in the pork cubes, a few at a time, and brown them lightly on all sides.
Remove each batch with a slotted spoon and keep in a bowl. Do all the pork
this way. Now put the ginger-garlic paste into the same pot. Turn down the
heat to medium. Stir the paste for a few seconds. Add the coriander and
turmeric. Stir for another few seconds. Add the meat, any juices that may
have accumulated as well as the vindaloo paste and the water. Bring to a
boil. Cover and simmer gently for an hour or until port is tender. Stir a
few times during this cooking period. Serve with rice.
