Pork And Mango Korma Food

PORK AND MANGO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat canola oil to 375 degrees F for frying.
• Marinate the pork with the pick-a-peppa sauce for 1 hour. In a medium bowl, combine the mango, onion, pepper, chile, vinegar, 3/4 cup olive oil, cilantro, lemon juice, salt and black pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the pork from the marinade. Heat a large saute pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium high heat and sear the pork loin on both sides until golden brown. Place in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until the internal temperature is 140 degrees F. Take out of the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Fry the plantains until golden brown and place on a paper towel to drain. Salt the plantains while they are hot. To serve, slice the pork loin into medallions and place around the plate. Spoon the mango salsa on the pork medallions and sprinkle with sliced scallions, for garnish. Place a mound of the plantains in the center of the plate and serve.

CREAMY CHICKEN & MANGO CURRY

Steps:

• Toss the chicken thighs with 1 tsp of the turmeric and some salt. Heat the oil in a big frying pan or wide flameproof casserole, and brown the thighs well on both sides. Remove from the pan. Add the chopped onion and cook for 5 mins until softened.
• Roughly cut all the flesh from one of the mangoes, scraping as much as you can from the stone. Put into a food processor with the korma paste, ginger and quartered onion. Whizz to a paste, then tip into the pan and gently cook until softened.
• Stir in the remaining turmeric, cumin and onion seeds and turn up the heat for a couple of mins. Return the chicken to the pan. Stir in the coconut milk and stock. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover and cook for 20 mins.
• Uncover the pan and cook for another 25-30 mins until the chicken is really tender, adding a few drops of water to keep it saucy.
• Slice the remaining mango and stir in to heat through while you shred the chicken with two forks. Season and serve scattered with the coriander, with basmati rice, naan bread, chutney, lime pickle and our sides, if you like.
