Method:

1. Place the pork in a pan with the turmeric, coriander and chili powder and pour in just enough water to cover. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for about 45 minutes until the meat is tender.

2. Remove the meat and shred it. Heat a little oil or ghee and fry the poppy seeds, lentils and cardamom separately until lightly browned. Add these to the meat with the remaining ingredients and season to taste with salt.

3. Mix together well and shape into balls. Deep-fry in hot oil over a low heat until nicely browned. Serve hot with papadums, rice and a curry sauce.
