1. 1

   Soak the dried fruits in water for at least 30 minutes.

   💡 Consejos de Profesional: This helps them rehydrate and soften.
2. 2

   In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.

3. 3

   Add the cubed smoked pork to the pot and brown it on all sides.

4. 4

   Drain the dried fruits and add them to the pot along with the cinnamon stick, cloves, and bay leaf. Pour in the vegetable broth.

   💡 Consejos de Profesional: Ensure the meat and fruits are mostly submerged.
5. 5

   Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover and cook for about 1 hour, or until the pork is tender.

   💡 Consejos de Profesional: Maintain a gentle simmer, not a rolling boil.
6. 6

   Remove the pork and fruits from the pot, setting them aside. Strain the cooking liquid into a separate saucepan, discarding the solids (cinnamon stick, cloves, bay leaf).

   💡 Consejos de Profesional: Reserve the cooking liquid for the sauce.
