Thanks to a generous food-loving human being for sharing this recipe featuring two of our favourites in one dish : Snails (we call it ‘hamok‘ in Nagamese) and smoked pork. 

Ingredients:

• 2  large Potatoes
• 1 head Naga garlic
• 1 medium-sized Naga Ginger
• 5-8 Naga dried red chilly/Green Chilly
• 4 tablespoon of fermented bamboo shoot
• 1 large tomato
• 1/2 cup chopped coriander
• 1  kilo of smoked pork
• 1 kilo of  fresh snail
• 1 medium onion/Spring onions

Directions to cook:

1. Soak the snails in clear water for 48 hrs (so that they cleanse themselves). Change the water every 24 hours.
2. Prepare the snails: Smack the pointed end of the snail with a spoon so that the flavors of the spices go inside.
3. Put all the ingredients together in a heavy lid < aluminum> pot/pressure cooker and cook for about 45 minutes to 1 hr.

Serve with Rice or Rice Beer. Bon appetit!
