1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, minced
2-3 tablespoons curry powder
400ml coconut milk
Carrot
Potato
1-2 tablespoons fish sauce or soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1-2 cups water or chicken broth
Salt and pepper, to taste
Cooked rice, for serving
Instruction
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Begin by peeling and cutting the vegetables. Peel and dice the carrots and potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the ginger. Set everything aside.
- Boil the eggs until hard-boiled, then peel and set them aside.
- Fry the Vegetables:
- Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the diced carrots and potatoes until they are slightly golden and partially cooked. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
- Sauté the Aromatics:
- In a large pot or pan, heat some oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced ginger, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is soft and translucent.
- Cook the Pork:
- Add the pork cubes to the pot with the sautéed aromatics. Cook until the pork is browned on all sides.
- Season the pork with fish sauce, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine.
- Add Coconut Milk and Curry Powder:
- Pour in the coconut milk and bring it to a boil.
- Add the curry powder and stir well to combine.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until the pork is tender, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Add Fried Vegetables:
- Once the pork is tender, add the fried carrots and potatoes to the pot.
- Stir in the bell pepper and let the curry simmer for another 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are fully cooked.
- Add the Eggs:
- Gently add the hard-boiled eggs to the curry and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the eggs to absorb the flavors.
- Final Seasoning:
- Taste the curry and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or fish sauce if needed.
- Serve:
- Serve the pork curry hot over cooked rice.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired.
Notes
- The longer you marinate the pork in your favorite spices (at least 30 minutes of it will cost) — the better the taste. This will help the meat absorb the spices properly and make your Pork Curry with Egg even more tasty, almost to none. As for spice, customize to your preference, and don’t forget those pulses in between the stirs, like every 30 minutes if you are not babying! Have fun making these and mold it to a recipe best suited for you!
What Is With Curry With Pork
Pork Curry with Egg: 1. A traditional Sri Lankan pork curry that is made with tender pieces of pork simmered in a spiced and fragrant curry sauce along with hard-boiled eggs for an extra treat! I like the contrast of flavors as this dish is cooked up drawing influences from different parts of Asia where pork and eggs are a staple. The eggs provide a nice texture and silkiness to the curry, which is no longer warming but still comforting and good in any season. This dish is delicious and easy to make, so it has been a favorite of home cooks who love curry.
Pairing Suggestion with for Pork Curry with Egg
This pork curry with egg goes perfectly with steamed jasmine or basmati rice that can soak in the rich, spicy thick sauce. For a bit of a lighter, less calorie-laden version, you can also serve it with naan or roti—the breads are excellent life rafts for this curry. You need something tangy, crunchy, and fresh to clean the palate from all of that richness—a cucumber salad or pickled vegetables would be ideal. A mango lassi or a cold beer on the side would be just perfect to end this meal.
