Purslane, known as verdolagas, tastes like a cross between spinach and cucumbers. Verdolagas are very common in Mexican kitchens, especially in pork stews. Comfort food at its best!

Steps:
- Combine pork ribs, pork shoulder, water, and salt in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Uncover and increase heat to medium-high. Continue cooking and stirring constantly until all liquid has evaporated and pork has browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Combine onion, tomatillos, serrano peppers, and cilantro in a medium saucepan. Add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until tomatillos are tender and have changed color, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer vegetable mixture to a blender; add garlic and and blend carefully until sauce is smooth.
- Pour sauce into the Dutch oven, season stew with salt and pepper, and simmer for 1 hour. Add purslane and simmer until pork is tender and purslane is soft, about 20 minutes more.

[email protected]This stew was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to make it more flavorful. I also think it would have been better if I had used a different type of meat, like beef or lamb.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. It took me over an hour to make, and I had to keep an eye on it the whole time. The stew was good, but I don't think it was worth the effort.

[email protected]I was disappointed with this recipe. The pork was tough and the purslane was bland. The sauce was also very thin and lacked flavor. I would not recommend this recipe.

[email protected]This stew was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very flavorful. I liked the combination of pork and purslane, and the sauce was very rich and satisfying. I would recommend using less chili peppers if you don't like spicy food.

[email protected]This purslane pork stew was absolutely delicious! The flavors were incredibly rich and complex, and the pork was fall-apart tender. I especially loved the addition of the purslane, which added a unique and slightly tangy flavor to the dish. I will de
