CARNITAS
(8 servings)

3 pounds boneless pork from the leg, cut into 2-inch cubes
2 large onions, cut in half
4 garlic cloves
Salt
2 tablespoons lard
1-1/2 cups milk

Place the pork in a saucepan with water to cover, the onions, garlic, and salt to taste. Cook for about 1 hour, until the pork is tender. Drain thoroughly and discard the onion and garlic.

Heat the lard and milk with salt to taste in a large saucepan. Add the pork pieces and cook, stirring often, until the milk cooks away completely and the meat is golden.
