• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 400 ml coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

📝 Instructions

9 steps

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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