Preparation

1
This lovely Greek Cypriot recipe is best started off the night before so that the pork is marinated for a good length of time. Its a wonderful recipe for people at work who need something really good and fast for when they get home.
2
The night before trim any fat from the pork fillet and cut it into bite sized cubes then put the cubes into a bowl.
3
Using a pestle and mortar (or a bowl and the end of a rollingpin) lightly crush the coriander seeds then sprinkle them all over the pork cubes and mix well.
4
Now pour over the wine and stir everything again.
5
Cover the bowl with a cloth and leave to marinate in the bottom of the fridge overnight.
6
Next day strain the pork in a large sieve over a bowl and reserve the marinade.
7
Then heat the oil in a medium sized frying pan; when it is really hot fry the pork pieces in 2 batches to brown them removing the first batch to a plate then returning them to the second batch.
8
Add the reserved marinade bring to the boil season and cover the pan with a lid and turn the heat down to a gentle simmer.
9
After 10 minutes add the water and then recover the pan and cook gently for a further 30 minutes.
10
Serve the afelia on a bed of rice.
