Instructions

Prepare the pork shoulder with ground black pepper and salt. Cook it in a pot with the lad or oil. When the color changes to brown, take it away from the heat.

Start cooking the onions together with the cumin, and garlic. When the onions become brown you can add the pork meat back, together with the chicken broth.

Finish with the cilantro for five more minutes. Serve it and garnish it in bowls.
