Prep time: 10 minutes
Active Cook time: 15 minutes
Inactive time: 35 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Serves: 4

Ingredients
1 jar Masala Mama Vindaloo Sauce
1 tablespoon ghee or oil
1½ lbs. pork shoulder, cut into 4 pieces
1 onion, chopped
½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for additional heat)
Salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Add oil to Instant Pot and select Sauté setting. Once the oil is hot, add the pork and cook until golden brown on each side. Add the onion to the Instant Pot and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes. 

  2. Cancel the Sauté function on the Instant Pot and add Masala Mama Vindaloo Simmer Sauce* and red pepper flakes. Stir well and lock the Instant Pot lid in place and turn the steam release valve to Sealing. Select Manual/Pressure Cook and cook on high pressure for 35 minutes.

  3. When cooking is complete, turn the Instant Pot off and allow steam to release naturally for 5 minutes before turning the valve to Vent. Remove the Instant Pot lid and shred the pork with a pair of forks.

  4. Adjust salt and pepper to taste and serve with cauliflower rice (see recipe below). 

*Use 2 tablespoons of stock or water to rinse out any remaining sauce in the jar and add.
