Recipe
1. Heat oil in a 6-quart stockpot, add pork, onions and garlic and cook until pork is browned. Drain excess grease.

After 2 hours, add remaining 1 cup water if needed. Adjust seasonings if desired,(I added more cumin ) and simmer 2 to 3 hours longer.

Tips from test kitchen;
Serve hot with corn chips, warm flour tortillas or corn bread. Try a lean cut of pork, like center-cut loin, to reduce the fat.
