- Make sure to cut the pork into even pieces so that it cooks evenly and becomes tender.
- Allow the onion to cook until it's translucent; this will bring out its natural sweetness, adding depth of flavor to the stew.
- When browning the pork, don't overcrowd the pan. Cook the pork in batches if necessary, to ensure that each piece has enough contact with the pan and browns nicely.
- Peeling and cutting the potatoes into wedges is important for even cooking. This way, they will also absorb the delicious flavors of the stew.
- Leaving the bay leaf in the stew for the whole cooking time adds a nice, subtle flavor. Just remember to remove it before serving.
- Feel free to add other herbs and spices that you like to customize the dish to your preference.
- This stew is even better the next day, so feel free to make it ahead of time. Just store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days
