Cut the pork into 1 cm cubes. Mix the mariande ingredients together and rub all over the pork. Set aside to marinate for about 10 minutes.

Mix all the marinate ingredients together and blend in a blender until it is smooth as possible.

Heat the oil in a big heavy-based pan/casserole and fry, stirring frequently, for 8-10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Add the meat to the pan in batches and fry for 3 minutes per batch. Remove the meat with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Replace and reheat the onions in the pan and add the paste mixture, simmer and stir frequently for about 8 minutes.

Return the meat to the pan with the curry leaves and stir until well coated. Add the hot water, bring to the boil and simmer covered for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Season to taste, cook uncovered for 2 minutes and serve immediately.
