Delicious Pork with Snails!

Ingredients you will need :
  1. 1 large Tomato
  2. 6-8 Green Chilly (Depends on how spicy you want)
  3. 1/2 kilo of fresh pork
  4. 1/2 kilo of snail
  5. 750 ml of water
  6. 5 cloves of garlic
  7. 3-4″ ginger

Cleaning the Snails:

  • After buying the fresh snails from the market, make sure you keep them in a bucket of clean water for about 2-3 days. Keep changing the water every day. This way, the snail will be clean enough to be cooked
  • Later, clean the shells with a brush (if necessary)
  • Rinse thoroughly with water before cooking
Directions to Cook:
  1. Put all the ingredients together in a deep pot and cook until the meat is tender which would take about 30-45 minutes. Add more water in case you want some light gravy.

How to eat the Snails?

Tap the pointed edge with a spoon to crack it slightly..and suck in. Enjoy the gravy flavors! Now turn to the wide open end (opposite side) and suck in again, and enjoy the succulent snails!
