Method

Soak a lemon-sized ball of tamarind in hot water and set aside.

Marinate pork with salt.

Grind garlic, ginger, whole spices, cumin, turmeric, and vinegar into a semi-coarse paste.

Mix this masala with the salted pork and marinate overnight (or 2–3 hours).

Add marinated pork to a pot along with sliced onion, broken chillies, and crushed ginger-garlic.

Add kokum petals and pour the strained tamarind water.

Cook until pork is tender and gravy thickens.

Adjust salt and finish with sugar.
