Wahan Mosdeng / Pork Chutney / Pork Bharta / Tripura Cuisine


Wahan Mosdeng is a popular Tripura cuisine in which pork is the key ingredient and apart from that, only minimal ingredients required to prepare this delicious salad. Wahan is nothing but pork and interestingly, this recipe is prepared without using a drop of oil. Yes! you read it right... this is zero oil recipe. This Wahan Mosdeng is also called as Pork Bharta and Pork chutney. Traditionally this recipe is prepared using pork but people who do not eat pork, substitute it with chicken.  The fresh ginger and roasted chilli gave a perfect flavour to the dish and personally, I loved it with rice.

Prepared this recipe for a blogger event "shhh cooking secretly challenge" which is happening among food bloggers every month. For this month, I got a first time chance to get paired with a lovely blogger Narmadha who blogs at namscorner.com. Don't forget to check out her page to view loads of  delicious recipes. She gave me coriander leaves and chilli as my secret ingredients which helped me to create this authentic Tripura recipe. Likewise, check out her page to know the secret ingredients given by me. She made an interesting, simple yet delicious recipe out of it.



Ingredients :

250 gms Pork, Cut into pieces
1 Big Onion, thinly sliced 
5-6 Green chillies ( Adjust according to taste bud ) 
1 1/2 Tbsp Ginger, finely chopped 
1/4 Cup Coriander leaves, finely chopped 
Salt to taste

Method :

Wash the pork pieces and pressure cook it for 3 whistles by adding little water. 

Open the lid and cook it for another 2 minutes or until the water gets absorbed. This helps to keep the flavour in pork. 

Once done, cut in small pieces and keep aside. 

Dry roast the green chillies and grind it without adding water. Keep aside. 

Take the chopped pork pieces in a bowl and add the ground chilli followed by thinly sliced onion, ginger, coriander leaves and salt. 

Mix well and serve. 



Serving Options :

Serve with Rice or Roti.
