Ojakhuri — Georgian Family-Style Pork Shoulder & Potatoes

Ingredients

• 1½ lb Pork Shoulder, in chunky pieces
• 2 lb potatoes, in wedges
• 2 red onions, in petals
• 4 cloves garlic
• 1 tsp coriander + ½ tsp fenugreek or curry powder + chili flakes
• 3 tbsp oil
• Big handful cilantro + pomegranate seeds if you're feeling Tbilisi

Method

1. Crisp the potato wedges in half the oil in your widest pan, 15 minutes, turning until golden-edged and tender. Remove.
2. Sear the Pork Shoulder hard in the rest of the oil until browned and cooked through (145°F + rest for pork).
3. Add the onion petals and garlic for the final 4 minutes — they should char at the edges, staying half-crisp.
4. Reunite the potatoes, dust everything with the spices, and toss 2 minutes.
5. Serve straight from the pan, showered with cilantro (and pomegranate if using). Ojakhuri means family — the pan hits the table, the forks negotiate the rest.
