Instructions

Par boil pork

Place pork, heart, and liver in a heavy bottom sauce pan
Season with salt, pepper and turmeric
Stir fry on medium heat in a heavy bottom pot with 1/4 cup vinegar and cook until brown (do not add water)
Let cool – cut into fine pieces (about 1/2 inch piece)

Make Sarpatel

In a heavy bottom cooking pot add oil and fry the ginger, garlic, chiles for 2 minutes
Then add bottle masala – fry for a minute more on gentle heat
Add the chopped meat, (dried blood if using) and saute on medium heat.
Finally add remaining vinegar and cook until meat is cooked well.
Taste and adjust seasoning. Add more vinegar is necessary

Recipe Notes

Traditionally pork blood is an ingredient used in this dish. I have never ever used it in any of my sorpotel recipes.
The vinegar I have given is a 1/2 cup but you may need more. Up to 1 cup. I find vinegar we get overseas is stronger – so tend to use less, while in Indian I use more. Please taste and adjust as necessary.
