Ingredients:

1 lb lean short pork ribs, cut into 1-inch cubes

1 lb uncooked long grain rice, rinsed and dried

3 teaspoons lard or vegetable oil

1 roll cilantro, chopped

1 clove garlic, crushed

1/2 cup red bell pepper, chopped

1/2 cup onion, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Heat lard or vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add pork ribs and stir for three minutes. Add water to cover two inches above pork ribs. Bring it to a boil until pork is tender. Add cilantro, garlic, red bell pepper, onions, salt and pepper and stir. Add uncooked rice and more water so that there is one inch above pork level, stirring occasionally to avoid scorching until rice is cooked.
