Chilly Pork
Kerala-style pork with its signature dark roast and crispy edges. The meat is first tenderised with spices, then dry-fried until each piece has a deep, caramelised crust that crackles when you bite in.

Tip
Do not rush the onion and shallot frying. The difference between pale onions and properly browned onions is the difference between a flat dish and a flavourful one.
