Method

  1. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a wok or large frying pan until very hot. Add the pork and stir fry for 3-4 mins until it starts to brown. Remove from the pan, set aside and wipe the pan out with a piece of kitchen paper.
  2. Pour the remaining oil into the pan and tip in the spices. Cook over a medium heat for a minute to release their aromas. Pour in the chicken stock and cook for about 3-4 mins over a high heat until reduced by about half. Toss in the peas. Take it off the heat and stir in the yogurt. Season if you want to. Add the pork and warm through, then scatter over the coriander. Serve with some rice.

    I really liked this. It has a subtle but very tasty flavour to it. The fresh coriander adds a nice touch

    If this recipe has been tested, then BBC would have adjusted the recipe Ingredients to advise whether to use Paprika Piquante or Paprika Dulce. Makes a lot of difference.....!!! Assume that it is Piquante because the title suggests "spices". To Grym. You probably need to reduce the stock for a lot longer- not only does it give body (vs thin) but it gives a more intense flavour. (I have made this mistake on other recipes in the distant past.) To all, Tonight I used chicken strips and parsley because I did not have Pork or Coriander. Tasted just fine. Mild spices is the name of the game. Cheers

    My experience was similar to Grym's. I think Kiwi Judi is right that the stock needs to be reduced more than the recipe suggests. I also found that the yogurt tended to separate when added. Maybe half-fat creme fraiche would be better.

    Just one thing : whether yogurt, cream or creme fraiche, if you're not using the full fat versions, these latter need to be stirred in right at the end, OFF THE HEAT, otherwise they will curdle and tend to seperate.
