As kids, mom would make pork vindaloo often as it was my dad’s and middle sister’s favourite dish, We used to order this bread wala naan from the bakery and gobble the vindaloo with it. My eldest sister is a vegetarian (delivered at the wrong address maybe :P) and she would eat the creamy potatoes from any non veg dish but couldn’t digest meat.
I am not a big fan of pork as find it quite fatty though loooovvvee Bacon anytime. When I started cooking, I decided to use mutton instead of pork. And it tastes as delicious as I remembered it.
Super spicy, delicious and the perfect tang. Goan mutton vindaloo. Adjust spice levels as per your choice and if you have Goan fermented vinegar, it will add wonders to your dish. That gravy is the perfect place for the pav to swim in
