Preparation steps
1.
Cut the pork into large, bite-sized cubes. Heat half of the oil in a frying pan and quickly brown the meat on all sides over a fairly high heat (you may need to do this in batches). Take out of the pan and set aside.
2.
Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan, add the spices for the curry mixture and fry gently. Peel and finely chop the onions. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Wash the chilli, slit open lengthwise, remove the seeds and the inner ribs and finely dice the flesh. Add the onions, garlic, ginger and chilli to the spices in the pan and fry for a few seconds, stirring constantly. Then add the strained tomatoes. Cover and cook over a low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Now add the fresh curry leaves and puree finely.
3.
Pour in the coconut cream and stir until the sauce has the desired consistency and colour. Add a little water if necessary. Place the meat in the curry sauce, season with salt and pepper and simmer gently for about 1 1/4 hours, until the meat is tender. Serve hot.
