1

Start by introducing the recipe for yuca with pig's feet.

4

Display ingredients for pico de gallo: tomato, onion, lime, and cilantro.

5

Place the pig's feet in a pot and cover with enough water.

6

Add 1 whole onion, 3 cloves of garlic, half of a green chili, half of a red chili, and 4 leaves of culantro ancho to the pot.

7

Season with salt to taste and bring to a boil, then simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours until tender.

8

After 2 hours, check the pig's feet for tenderness; if they need more time, cook for an additional 10-15 minutes.

9

While the pig's feet are cooking, prepare the yuca by boiling it in salted water until tender.

10

If using a pressure cooker, the pig's feet will take about 30 minutes instead of 2 hours; mention that the creator's pressure cooker is broken.

11

Show the preparation of vegetables: onion, tomato, green chili, and garlic, which will be sautéed to add flavor to the pig's feet.

Add the sautéed vegetables to the pot with the pig's feet and mix well.

13

Season the mixture with 2 tablespoons of chicken bouillon, 1 tablespoon of cumin, and black pepper to taste.

14

Stir everything together and let it simmer to integrate the flavors.

15

Add tomato sauce to the mixture, ensuring it has enough liquid to create a sauce for the yuca.

16

Check the yuca for doneness; it should be soft and tender before serving.

17

Serve the dish, starting with a generous portion of yuca, followed by the pig's feet and the sauce.

18

Garnish with chopped cabbage and additional vegetables as desired.
