I have a quick recipe for pork vindaloo that calls for 2 t. of mustard seed which I do not have. I do, however, have ground mustard. I have the aromatics (garam masala, hot paprika, onion & garlic). The mustard seed simmers first with the tomatoes and broth, then the aromatics are heated and added later. Should I skip the mustard or can I add some ground and, if so, how much? Thanks!

Since in Pork Vindaloo, the whole seeds are ground (with cumin seeds, red chilies, black peppercorns, cardamon seeds, cinnamon and fenugreek seeds or whatever other combination you use) I would use 1 t ground mustard to 2 t whole mustard seeds. There are many things that require whole mustard seeds that you would not be able to substitute the ground mustard for, but this is not one of them.
After you have ground the other seeds add the mustard powder to them and then continue on with the recipe. I am assuming that the next step after grinding the seeds is to put them in a bowl and add vinegar, salt and brown sugar and set aside until the onions have been cooked and pureed and ready to make the Vindaloo paste
