Pork Vindaloo

Pork Vindaloo St Andrews Recipe
Pork Vindaloo St Andrews Style

I still wonder the similarities between Goan and St Andrews food. Many people in St Andrews, Trivandrum regularly make Pork Vindaloo, a dish popular in Goa. The similar food traits could have been bought in by Portuguese or by Christian missionaries.

More details on our patron St. Andrew.

Here's a simple Pork Vindaloo recipe popular in St Andrews locality, Kazhakuttom, Trivandrum. It's a variant of Goan Pork Vindaloo, with a Kerala touch.

Pork Vindaloo For Xmas


Easy Cooking Pork Vindaloo 
Last Xmas at Trivandrum, Kerala I made Pork Vindaloo. My in-law likes to indulge in pork bites and I make sure to give my best.

Pork vindaloo is popular Goan cuisine and surprisingly it's common dish prepared by my Mom and Aunts from St Andrews, Trivandrum.Sometimes, I wonder if there's a common Portuguese connection between Goa and St Andrews.

Where to buy pork in Bangalore
I find it very easy to make Pork Vindaloo. You too can make this dish with very less time and effort.

In Bangalore I buy pork either from Ham Shop near CMH road or from Frosyt's at Indira Nargar side (Micheal palaya). While I'm at Trivandrum, I buy it from a cold storage opposite to Medical College Police station or from Kunnukuzhy.

Check out the Pork Vindaloo recipe from one of my earlier blog post.

God bless,
