Coorgi Pandi curry – Coorg Style Spicy Pork

Pandi curry or Coorg Style Spicy Pork is probably one of my most favourite ways of eating pork. Perfect with an akki roti, rice or a glass of beer.

If you ask anyone who knows me decently well, they will tell you how much I love Pandi Curry. There are friends who now tease me that if you want Monika to come, make Pandi curry and she’ll be there. So when I had Nivedita from Coorg join the team, it was obvious that she will make it for me 😉

She made this for me a few months ago and a recipe draft has been sitting in my dashboard since then. But life has been crazy busy (and I have been stuck with a terrible writer’s block) and as a result, this blog has gone silent.

I want to be here more often, I miss writing! But somehow I can’t seem to make time and energy for it. I am not promising anything, but I am going to try my best to be here and write once a week. Write about what’s happening, what I ate and may share a recipe at the end or may be not! Would you dear readers be interested in posts like these?

Because I honestly do love this space but I am also getting bored with simply sharing recipes. So tell me, I am waiting to hear from you.

So here is the recipe without any further delay! If you make this,  share a picture with me on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook? I would love to hear what you have to say about it.
