- Serves 4 to 6LENTILS:Run the lentils through your hands to make sure there are no stones or possibly other foreign bodies in them. Rinse them in two changes of water and put into a pan. Add in onion, salt to taste, and sufficient water to come about 2 inches above the surface of the lentils. Set over medium heat and bring to a fast simmer. Continue simmering till the lentils are quite soft - about 3 hrs, depending on their age. Keep a pan of near-boiling water on the side, ready to add in if necessary.
- Put the pork pcs into a pan; add in salt to taste and water to cover.
- Bring to a fast simmer and continue simmering till the pork is tender but not soft - about 25 min. Strain, reserving the broth, and set broth and meat aside.
- Cover the dry chilies with boiling water and leave to soak for about 15 min, till the chilies have softened and become fleshy. Drain and put into a blender with 1 c. of the reserved pork broth, the broiled tomatoes, garlic, oregano, clove, and cinnamon; blend till smooth, adding more broth only if needed to release the blades of the blender.
- Heat the lard in a small frying pan, add in the blended ingredients, and fry over medium heat, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan, till reduced and well seasoned - about 4 min. Add in to the lentils and add in the pork, remaining broth, plantain, and pineapple; simmer together for about 30 min. Adjust salt and add in water if necessary. The mix should be like a thick soup.
