Instructions

1. 1Place the 1.5 lbs of Pork Shoulder into a large heavy-bottomed pot and add the 8 cups of Water. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 45 minutes, or until the pork is very tender when pierced with a fork.
2. 2Add the 1 medium Onion, cut into quarters, and the 2 medium Tomatoes, cut into quarters, to the pot. Increase the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the aromatics to soften.

4. 4Add the 6 small Radishes, trimmed and halved if large, the 1 medium Eggplant, cut into 1-inch thick rounds, and the 1 cup of String Beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
