1. Prepare the coconut milk and tamarind paste. Then, place the red chili peppers, coriander, cumin, mustard seeds, and black peppercorns in a small, preferably cast-iron, skillet and roast, stirring and shaking the pan, over medium heat until the seeds are a few shades darker, about 2 minutes. Let cool, then grind in a spice or a coffee grinder to make a fine powder. Mix in the turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
2. In a food processor or a blender, process together the small onion, ginger, garlic, green chili pepper, coconut milk, and tamarind paste until smooth. Mix in the roasted spice mixture and process again, adding up to JA cup water, if necessary, to make a smooth paste.
3. Heat the oil in a large nonstick wok or saucepan over moderately heat and cook the large chopped onion, stirring, until browned, about 10 minutes. Add the onion-coconut milk paste and cook, stirring, until golden, about 10 minutes.
4. Add the pork and cook, stirring, until browned, about 15 minutes. Add the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and simmer until the pork is fork-tender and the sauce is very thick, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle the cilantro on top, and serve.
