Spicy Pork Sambari Recipe is a tangier version of vindaloo, made with amboshi, it’s a must-try East Indian pork dish.
Ages ago, I had stopped eating pork for some years. It’s not a meat I really like. Beef, mutton, and veal are so much more tender. The only part of pork I really like is the tushin, the layer of fat and skin. And I don’t remember how I got back to eating pork again. But these few years I’ve been enjoying mom’s vindaloo, pork ukra, sambari, tamriale, pork chilly, and pork ribs, quite a bit.
I’m going to stop pork again next year, but till then there’s time to enjoy some spicy sambari, East Indian style.
This pork sambari is similar to the fiery pork vindaloo and pork ukra, but differs in the addition of kandries, amobshi, and rice flour. Think of your pork vindaloo married to some extra tang! Here’s how to make it.
