Recipe: Pork Curry with Cauliflower

PORK CURRY WITH CAULIFLOWER

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons mild curry powder
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 1/2 pounds pork loin, cut in 1-inch cubes
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 head cauliflower

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add curry powder and garlic and stir until garlic is golden.

Add pork, and stir to coat completely with garlic-curry mix. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until pork is caramelized.

Add bell pepper and vinegar, and cook and stir 3 minutes, or until bell pepper is soft. Sprinkle with salt.

Add 2 cups water, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 30 to 45 minutes, or until pork is tender.

Cut cauliflower into bite-size pieces, and add to pork. Cook, stirring, until cauliflower is tender.
