  1. Marinate the pork in a bowl with the rest of the ingredients for 9 to 10 hours (mixed well), minus the potatoes and parsley.
  2. Now, add the pork along with the marinade to a large saucepan over low heat and let it simmer for 30 to 45 minutes.
  3. Reserve and set aside most of the liquid in the saucepan and turn the heat to medium-high.
  4. Saute the pork for 5 minutes until it becomes a nice browned color.
  5. Add the chopped potatoes to the saucepan along with the reserved marinade and stir it well.
  6. Turn the heat back to low and let it simmer for another 1 and 1/2 hours (until the pork and potatoes are well tender).
  7. Once the pork is done, remove from the heat and pour into a serving platter.
  8. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and serve while hot.

This has become one of mine and my husband's favorite recipes of all time! It's absolutely delicious and we love the broth so much that we use all of it and add carrots and lentils to the pot at the same time that we add the potatoes. We eat it as a pork soup with dinner rolls or pao de queijo. Tonight we're going to try using sword fish instead of pork for the first time - just to see what it's like.
