Oma Gwran Jwng Aloo Jwng


Oma Gwran Jwng Aloo Jwng is a delicious preparation of pork with potato.


A few Bodo terminologies:
1.Oma: pork
2.Gwran: smoked/dry
3.Jwng: with
4.Aloo: potato
5.Ingkhree: curry
To cook this Bodo delicacy, you need :




500gm Oma Gwran, washed in warm water. Pork is cut into bite size pieces and kept on a big sieve made of bamboo which is suspended at a height over fire. The pieces are turned and stirred occasionally so that they are not burnt but turn golden brown like the picture above.


4 or 5 Potatoes, peeled and washed. Keep them whole if small, halve if big.



Paste of 2 onions+10 pods garlic+little ginger
Chopped green chilly to taste.



2 tsp level turmeric, salt to taste, 3 bay leaves, chopped fresh coriander.
2 tsp powdered cardamom+cinnamon+clove


3 tbsp mustard oil
Method: 


Heat oil, fry all ingredients leaving aside potato, oma gwran and coriander for a few minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients leaving coriander for garnishing. Stir fry a little and cook in a pressure cooker adding 2 to 3 cups water. 


When cooked, take out onto a pan and cook a little to make the gravy thick and check salt.


Delicious Oma Gwran Ingkhree is ready to be served with rice garnished with fresh coriander.
