What it is

Cyprus's pork in red wine and coriander: cubes of pork marinated in wine, then braised in it with crushed coriander seeds until glossy. Ingredients: pork shoulder, dry red wine, coriander seeds (crushed), bay, cinnamon (a hint), onion, olive oil, salt, pepper. Recipe: 1) Marinate pork in wine and coriander overnight. 2) Drain; sear the meat. 3) Braise in the marinade with onion until tender and reduced. 4) Serve when the sauce turns syrupy. Serve: with pourgouri (bulgur pilaf) and yogurt, a staple of the Cypriot meze-to-main progression. Flavor: winey, warmly spiced, coriander-bright. History: afelia reflects Cyprus's ancient wine culture (the island's Commandaria is among the world's oldest wines); coriander is its signature spice. See also: Kleftiko, Sheftalia.
