This is Part 3/3 of Chef Mike’s cooking series where he shares about his favorite aspect in preparing our student-favorite pork vindaloo - combining a few dozen ingredients with totally different flavors and somehow turning it into something that works. Today, Chef Mike wrapped up his final meal of the semester at the Clean Plate. Big thank you to everyone on the Clean Plate station for showing up for our students all year. We’ll be looking forward to the next round in the fall 2025!

When it’s Curry Day at Kline, one thing is guaranteed: the longest line is always at the clean plate station. In a three-part series, Chef Mike breaks down his making of Pork Vindaloo with farm-fresh vegetables. It’s a dish from Goa, a coastal port state where Indian and Portuguese flavors come together. Today’s Part 1 starts where Chef Mike’s process begins, with the prep of marinating the pork, blending the spices, and chopping vibrant veggies that build the foundation of our student favorite.
