Gather Your Ingredients
To make this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- Extra thick pork chops
- Red curry paste
- Avocado oil
- Garlic bouillon
- Coconut cream
- White basmati rice
- Water
- Carrots
- Golden raisins
- Green beans (optional)
Start with the Pork
Begin by slicing off the fat from the pork chops and cutting them into bite-sized pieces. Heat some avocado oil in the Instant Pot on sauté mode, then add the red curry paste and cook for 30-45 seconds. Add the pork pieces and stir until they’re coated in the curry paste.
Add the Coconut Cream and Rice
Add two jars of water to the Instant Pot, scraping the bottom to remove any burned bits. Then, add the garlic bouillon and coconut cream. Stir everything together, then add the rice to a heat-proof glass bowl with a one-to-one ratio of water. Place the bowl on the trivet in the Instant Pot and set it to high pressure for four minutes.
Prepare the Carrot Raisin Topping
While the Instant Pot is cooking, prepare the carrot raisin topping. Peel and julienne the carrots, then cut them into matchstick-size pieces. Mix with golden raisins and set aside.
Finishing Touches
Once the Instant Pot is done, fluff the rice and add frozen green beans (if using). Stir everything together, then hit cancel and turn the Instant Pot to sauté mode to cook the sauce down a bit. This step is optional, but it adds an extra layer of flavor to the dish.
Serve and Enjoy
Plate the dish by adding a scoop of rice, followed by the curry and topping it with the carrot raisin mixture. Add a squeeze of lime juice and enjoy!
