Pork Ulathiyathu (Stir fried pork)- Kerala style
- Details
Relocating to a new place on transfer is like pressing the reset button. Gotta start all over again!! I feel like Alice in Wonderland, especially when it comes to the source of my food supplies. As I slowly started to explore the markets for ingredients for my recipes, it dawned on me to try something with Beef and Pork. Getting good pork and beef in this part of the world (North of India) is certainly not an easy task. But thankfully, I was in for a pleasant surprise when someone told methat there is door delivery service for all kinds of Non vegetarian items, including pork and Beef. It really felt like music to my ears. 😛
Pork Ulathiyathu (Stir fried pork) is one of Js favourite preparations.The good thing about this dish is that you need not use much oil , as pork has it own fat. Once the pork is cooked, all the fat comes to the surface. You can discard the fat if you are health conscious. We have this dish with rice and usually an argument ensues as to who gets to mix rice in the pan in which the meat was fried. Try it out yourselves. I am sure you too will love the idea.. 🙂
