Geera Pork

Method

1. 1

   Wash the pork with lime, then season with garlic, onion, herbs and half the pepper; marinate 1 hour.

2. 2

   Toast the cumin seeds dry until they smoke faintly, then grind.

   💡 Darker than store-ground — that near-burnt edge is the dish.

3. 3

   Brown the pork in oil, add the ground geera and remaining pepper, and stir to coat.

4. 4

   Add a cup of water and cook it all the way back down until the pork fries in its own fat, about 40 minutes.

5. 5

   Finish with more lime and serve hot with toothpicks.
