Easy Pork Curry with Mushrooms (Tomato Base Recipe)

My Easy Pork Curry recipe with mushrooms has a delicious tomato based sauce. Its perfect if you're looking for something new to do with pork shoulder (or pork butt). This one pot meal is quick, flavorful and can be as mild or spicy as you like. It's cooked low and slow so the oven does the hard work and the pork is melt in the mouth tender.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 lb Pork Butt Roast - or leg, lean, diced
  • 2 tbsp Cornstarch (Cornflour) - or all-purpose/plain flour
  • 1 Onion - chopped
  • 3 Leeks - chopped
  • 10 oz Mushrooms
  • 2 tsp Curry Powder
  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper
  • 14 oz Canned Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 cup Chicken Stock - or vegetable
  • ¼ tsp Mixed Herbs
  • Fresh Cilantro (Coriander) - optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325ºÇ/170ºC
  • Season the diced pork meat with sea salt and black pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a Dutch oven or oven-proof pan with lid over a medium heat.
  • Fry the pork in the oil until browned. You do not need to cook it all the way through. You may need to work in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan and boil the pork instead of searing it.
  • Move the pork to a plate and sprinkle over the cornflour or flour.
  • Fry the chopped onions, leeks & mushrooms in the same pan with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil for around 3 mins until softened.
  • Return the seared pork to the pan and add the curry powder. Stir well to combine.
  • Add the canned tomatoes, stock and herbs. Season again and stir well.
  • Add the lid to the pan and and cook in the oven for 90 minutes or until the meat is fork tender.
  • Once the curry has come out of the oven, taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves if using and serve.
