Method

1
Prep ingredients
Cut the pork and potatoes into 2 cm cubes, finely dice the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger; set out the remaining ingredients.
2
Brown the pork
Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat; brown the pork in a single layer, turning pieces with tongs, then transfer it to a plate.
10 min
Tip: Brown in batches if needed; crowded meat steams instead.
3
Soften the aromatics
Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the Dutch oven over medium heat; stir often until softened, then stir in the curry powder for 30 seconds.
6 min
4
Simmer until tender
Return the pork to the Dutch oven and stir in the potatoes, crushed tomato, vinegar, and 250 ml water; cover and simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally.

Tip: Add a splash of water if the sauce gets thicker than you like.

Taste and serve
Taste the curry and adjust with salt and a few grinds of black pepper; serve hot with rice or naan.
