Instead of Pork with fat and bones
Nothing truly replaces bone marrow richness; pork rib is closest.
Pork with fatUse 80% of the weight; boneless, so add 100–150 ml stock and cook 10 minutes less. Less bone flavour.
Pork ribUse the same weight; bone-in and fatty, closest texture. Cook 10–15 minutes longer and skim fat.
Lamb rib with fatUse the same weight; stronger flavour and more fat. Cook 15 minutes longer and skim.
Vegetarian swaps
Raw jackfruitUse 70–80% of the weight because bone is not edible; add 150 ml stock and simmer 20–25 minutes. Add 2 tbsp oil for richness.
PotatoUse 70–80% of the weight; peel, parboil 10 minutes and add with the spices. It will not give bone richness, so use stock.
PaneerUse 70–80% of the weight; cube and add in the last 5 minutes. The gravy will be lighter and less fatty.
