Title: tropical pork curry
Post by: riv_mum on September 19, 2009, 11:18:39 am
Ingredients:

1 onion
1 large clove of garlic
2 tbsp curry paste/powder
1 tbsp oil
700g diced pork
1 can diced pineapple with juice
2 tbsp cornflour
2 bananas sliced
lemon to serve

Preparation:
Chop onion and garlic for 5 sec speed 7.
Add curry paste and oil and saute for 3 min, temp 100, speed 1.
Add diced pork and saute on reverse-speed 2, temp 100, 7 min.
Add pineapple, juice and cornflour. Cook at temp 100, reverse speed 1 for 2 min.
Add banana and stir through for 1 min on reverse speed 1.
Serve with a squeeze of lemon juice and rice.


This may need some tweeking as have only made it once. Turned out well and the kids loved it. Would reduce the banana next time or leave it out all together. You could add vegies with the pork.

Thermomixer - if using pork fillet I think I would only cook the fillet at 90o for 5 minutes as it will cook faster than regular diced pork.

JD - Another winner, thanks riv_mum.  Altered slightly, only used 3/4 of a banana, 1/2 can crushed pineapple and my pork fillet weighed 500g. Followed the rest of the quantities as per your recipe though and it made 3 good servings or 4 smaller served over steamed garlic rice sprinkled with coriander and served with a giant pappadam.  Followed Thermomixers advice and used the lower temperature and less cooking time of a pork fillet.  So quick and easy and one for visitors too.

Thanks Sheree, I have a pork fillet thawing out at the moment for tomorrow's lunch and have now changed my mind as to what I am going to cook with it.  Love Pork ;) ;) ;)

I do like the "sound" of this pork dish. Like Judy, I also love pork!
Thanks for the recipe.

Feel free to make changes to it. DH kept saying "wheres the icecream?" but the kids liked the sweetness.

This one is something I would do in summer or winter Cookie1.  I am just loving some of the recipes I'm trying at the moment and my big folder of tried recipes is looking good. Plenty of room to expand though so have to keep on doing different things to fill it up competely. We will be getting your rain this coming week - share it around, that's the way to go.
