Once everything is cooked through, place in a blender 2 cups of water, jalapeños, tomatillos, 1/2 tsp of salt, cilantro and 1garlic clove blend everything until smooth.
In a large sauce pan on low heat: put the pork, bay leave, 1 cup of water, and season with salt and pepper . Cover and let it cook through. When the water reduces the meat will begin to fry in its own fat. Add the onions, 1 minced garlic and potatoes stirring frequently to prevent anything from burning.
