Ingredients

2 lbs country-style pork ribs, cut into large chunks
2 teaspoons chili powder, not ground red pepper
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch cayenne
1 pinch salt and pepper
1 1/4 cups coconut milk
2 onions, chopped finely
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/4 cups beef stock or 1 1/4 cups bouillon
3 tablespoons butter, oil or 3 tablespoons ghee
3 small red potatoes, cut into large bite sized pieces (optional)
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Directions

1

Mix together all the spices and add a few spoonfuls of coconut milk, enough to make a thin paste. Add enough cayenne to make it fairly hot; enough to give spicy heat to all the meat and onions.
2

Heat the oil or butter, etc. and cook the onions and garlic until lightly browned.
3

Add the paste and continue frying for a couple minutes.
4

Add the meat and stir to cover with the paste and brown a bit. Add the beef broth, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer gently until the meat is very tender - at least 2 hours.
5

Add the optional potatoes when the meat is tender and continue cooking until the potatoes are done.
6

Stir in the remaining coconut milk and the lemon juice and continue simmering for 10 minutes until thickened a bit.
7

Serve over any type of Indian style boiled rice.
