Hello, Friend after a long break and here I am back, with a lot of memories and a load of food secrete from both my mum, well many of you’ll know I had gone on holidays and really believe me it’s was amazing and felt like the days was so short, felt like to stay back to enjoy more with family and friends as we miss many things, but the life has to go on.

I to enjoy with a load of food from mums and sis-in-law it was a treat for me I can say, and many things I learned from my both mum and sis-in-law they cooking are quite different than my mum and procedure as well but really enjoyed a treat from breakfast to dinner.

Today I share goa memories of Pork Chop which I cook with green masala, it was terrific and the meat was so juicy and family relishes every bite, well was waiting to cook with pork from a long time and the wise come true when I been to goa, can also make this chop with bit thick gravy or dry as well, it goes well with  Indian flatbread or any other flatbread. It was a bit long procedure bit worth it once you taste it and full house with the aroma while grilling.

So let’s begin with the recipe it’s very simple I had done many time this green masala I use similar, and apply and kept overnight and grill the next day it coats well to the meat every bite could feel the taste, it’s Goan Cuisine. So for the Green Masala you need.
