2. Place all the pork and onion into a really large pot with a lot of extra water and set to boil for 1.5-2 hours. Salt the water
3. Remove stem and dessed the chiles as best you can and set to soak while the meat cooks
4. About 30 mins into the meat cooking, blend the chiles and the garlic and sift into the large pot of meat
