Khorisa Stew Pork

Khorisa Stew Pork

Images on Rasoi Buddy are for illustrative purposes only and may not represent the exact appearance of the final dish.

Khorisa Stew Pork is a robust and deeply flavorful dish from the heart of Assamese households, where succulent pork pieces are slow-cooked with fermented bamboo shoots (Khorisa). This dish is a symbol of regional comfort, relying on the natural pungency of the bamboo to provide depth and balance to the rich fats of the meat. I use tender pork chunks simmered with a magnificent blend of garlic, ginger, and local herbs to create a magnifique clear and savory broth. The taste is remarkably bold—savory, slightly tangy, and carrying a magnificent sharp fragrance from the fermentation. It is an honest and high-quality representation of heritage cooking that values seasonal forest produce. I love serving this warm with a big bowl of sticky rice.
