Goan Pork Vindaloo is a spicy and tangy dish originally from the coastal region of Goa, India. It is a type of curry that has been heavily influenced by Portuguese cuisine, as they introduced the use of vinegar and garlic to the dish. The intensity of the dish comes from the use of Kashmiri chilies, known for their deep red color and moderate heat. The spice blend used in this recipe yields a rich and complex flavor, with notes of cinnamon, cloves, and cumin. This dish is traditionally served with rice or bread and is perfect for those who love bold flavors.
