This is a kick ass pork recipe.
1/2 cup peeled, slivered fresh ginger
1 1/2 lbs boneless country style ribs (or in my case I typically use pork loin and add a little oil to the recipe)
2 TBS red curry paste
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 1/2 cups water
2 tsp ground turmeric
2 tsp soy sauce
1/4 cup thinly sliced shallots
2 TBS minced garlic
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
put the slivered ginger in some warm water.
cut up the pork into ~1" cubes and mix it with the red curry paste and brown sugar. cook this in a dutch oven on medium heat until you've brown the pork slightly and rendered some of the fat (15 minutes).
put in water, turmeric and soy sauce. bring to a boil and then simmer, uncovered for about an hour or until the pork seems tender.
add in ginger and soaking liquid, shallots, garlic and lime juice. leave on the heat for about 5 minutes.
taste and adjust salt if needed, adjust lime juice or sugar if needed to get the balance right.
serve over jasmine or similar rice. AWESOME!!
