Good quality pork is the key. To get juicy and tender pork peices it is recommended to use fresh and good quality pork which are tender. Also use pork cuts with good amount of fats which works best. This yields juicy meat and helps to intensify the flavour in the dish. Raja mircha is the second hero ingredient of this dish. The hotness of the dish comes from this naga king chilly.

The pork pieces are cooked with spices like turmeric powder, cracked peppercorns, meat masala powder along with other like dry red chillies, onion, ginger, garlic, salt and raja mircha aka bhut jolokia/ghost chilly/naga king chilly.
I have used meat masala powder for a quick and delicious flavoring. It is a blend of Indian spices. The flavour and aroma from the meat masala really spiced up the dish. It also imparts a dark dan and beautiful colour to the dish. It makes your dish very tasty and flavorful. This meat masala can be used in any non-veg preparation like fries, curries, roast, grill etc. Moreover, this meat masala is easily available in any Indian grocery stores.

The pork pieces is mixed with salt and turmeric powder and kept aside a few minutes. Then it is cooked with coarsely grounded chillies, onion, ginger, garlic mixture along with tomato, cracked peppercorns and meat masala powder. The pork is cooked in it’s own juice and fats by adding some water without adding any oil until it is perfectly cooked and nicely coated with masala. Take off the heat and garnish with chopped coriander leaves. The end result is perfectly roasted and mouth watering hot and spicy pork.
ALTERNATE COOKING METHOD / HOW TO COOK HOT AND SPICY PORK IN PRESSURE COOKER
In a pressure cooker add the pork, grounded mixture, cracked peppercorns, meat masala, mix well and cook for about 10 minutes stirring in between. Add tomatoes, around 1 cup water along with soaked chilly water, cover the pressure cooker lid and pressure cook for about 8-10 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally and open the lid. Roast the pork on high heat stirring occasionally so that the pork doesn’t stick to the bottom till the water dries completely and the pork pieces is coated nicely with masala. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve.
