Vendaloo
 
1 1/2 lbs Chicken, Pork or Lamb
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp black/brown mustard seeds
1 onion, chopped
4 cloves of Garlic
1 Tbs freshly grated Ginger
2 Tbs Cider Vinegar
2 Tbs Olive oil Vegetable Suggestions
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon Peas
1/4 tsp ground cloves Green Beans
1 1/2 tsp Turmeric Potatoes
1 1/2 tsp cayenne Broccoli
1 1/2 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup Mustard oil or Olive oil
1 inch ball Tamarind pulp
1 1/4 Cup boiling water
 
Note: this is a fast version.  Normally the meat is marinated with the cumin, mustard, onions, garlic, ginger, vinegar, oil, cinnamon and clove before the rest of the ingredients are added.  This version is a fast method and probably not as good but acceptable.  Also the original recipe doesn't have vegetables but I've had it with veggies and love it.  
 
1. Sauté the onions in the olive oil and add the spices.  cook until the onions start to caramelize
2. Add the meat  and sear on both sides. 
3. Add the Tamarind pulp and the water.  If you would like to add vegetables add them now.
4. Cook over low heat about 30 min or until the meat looks done when you cut a piece open.  Cooking time will be determined by the thickness of the meat and what the meat is.  
5. Serve with rice.
