Place the smoked pork pieces in a heavy pot and add the water.
Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a gentle simmer.
Cook the pork for 30–35 minutes until tender and the smoky flavour has infused the broth.
Add the ginger and green chillies. Continue simmering for 5 minutes.
Add the chopped mustard leaves and salt.
Cook for another 10–15 minutes until the greens have softened and blended with the pork juices.
Simmer uncovered for a few minutes if excess liquid remains. The finished dish should be moist but not soupy.
Taste and adjust salt if necessary.
Serve hot with steamed rice.
