This tender, slow-cooked meat is covered with a thick tomato-based sauce prepared using Indian spices and sweetened with honey. To make the sauce, you have to first caramelize the onions – get them realllly nice and brown. This will add so much flavor and will create the base for the spiced tomato sauce. This recipe also calls for my homemade meat masala, made with cardamom, cloves, fennel seeds, cinnamon and black pepper. Trust me, after you make a jar of this spice, you’ll use it ALL the time. I made this pulled pork in my slow cooker – because I don’t own a smoker or a smoke pit and turning on my oven for hours in this heat just wasn’t going to happen. I put the pork shoulder roast in the slow cooker and seasoned it well with salt, pepper and a bit of turmeric. Once my sauce was done, I poured it all over the roast. A few hours later, I found myself with plenty of perfectly cooked, pullable pork. Make this, love this and impress your friends this summer (or any season) with delicious and different barbecued pork.
just for fun, here’s a picture of this dish from 2014:
