You don’t see pork mince at many curry houses but it is hugely popular in Goa and for good reason… it’s delicious in a curry.
Today I decided to experiment a bit and make pork mince vindaloo wraps. I’m telling you, this is one you need to try.
Of course you could serve this vindaloo pork mince simply over rice rolling it into a hot wrap is also quite nice. How ever you serve this pork mince recipe, I think you are going to like it.
Make this recipe your own…
I have used my vindaloo masala to make this recipe. Vindaloos are known for being spicy. This one is too but not ridiculously so. I like to be able to taste and enjoy my food.
That said, if you don’t like fiery hot curries, this one might still be a bit spicy for you. Feel free to reduce the amount of chillies used.
You can also use other meat. I like this with mince pork but you could use minced turkey, chicken, beef… what ever you wish.
Working ahead…
This dish could be cooked and eaten immediately. You will get better results, however if you let the meat marinate for a day or so.
This is great for those who like working ahead. Make the marinade, mix it in with the meat and let it marinate in the fridge until you are ready to cook.
Here are a few other recipe you might enjoy.
