1 boneless pork butt (approximately 7 pounds)
50 fluid ounces coconut milk (recommended: Chaokoh)
250 grams yellow curry paste (recommended: Mae Ploy)
5 tablespoons finely chopped ginger
5 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon Chinese fermented black beans, rinsed and chopped
1/4 cup sesame oil
8 to 10 kaffir lime leaves
1/4 bunch fresh cilantro
1/4 jalapeno pepper
4 cloves garlic
2 cups basmati rice
3 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper

6 to 8 tomatoes

Steps:

  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Rub the spices into the pork and roast for about 8 hours. Let cool. Pull apart and discard any fat. Put the pork pieces in a large pot and add the coconut milk.
  • Meanwhile, for the curry sauce: Saute the curry paste, ginger, garlic, and black beans in sesame oil until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Add this mixture to the pot with the pork and coconut milk. Add the lime leaves. Braise on low heat for 1 to 2 hours.
  • For the rice: Blend the cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, and 1 cup of water. Put this mixture in a pot on the stove. Add the basmati rice. Add 2 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, and then simmer, covered, until the rice absorbs the liquid, 20 to 25 minutes. When done, add the butter and salt and pepper, to taste.
  • For the salsa: Roast the jalapeno and poblano peppers, peel, and remove the seeds. Toast the cumin seeds and then grind. Dice the tomatoes and red onion and mix together in a bowl with the other salsa ingredients.
  • Heat the corn tortillas on a griddle. Plate the rice, put the pork with sauce on top, and finish with salsa and tortillas.
