• 2 teaspoons thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons culantro, minced (or cilantro)

3. Mix garam massala with 1/4 cup water, add this to hot oil and cook for about 3 minutes until thick and most of the water has evaporated.
4. Add pork and stir until coated with massala.
5. Add water until pork is just covered. Bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer for 20 -35 minutes or until almost cooked.
6. Add minced scotch bonnet pepper and ground cumin.
7. Stir thoroughly and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until tender.
