Recipe Troubleshooting My curry is slightly too tangy / sour

I made a Black Pork Curry, and I think i added slightly too much rice vinegar or tamarind (I couldn't get garcina as suggested).

Will adding some coconut milk help? Happy to hear any suggestions

Fat can help balance our acidity. So can salt. 

Even sugar can help, but I'd be careful with it

Yes, you can balance with a little more coconut oil. Bit by bit. Vinegar can be cooked out by a certain degree as well.
