Method

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and spicy pork sausages, browning them on both sides until the exterior is caramelized, about 8-10 minutes total.

Remove the browned pork and sausages from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, sauté the red onion quarters and chopped celery until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Add the mashed garlic to the pot and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Pour in the tomato sauce and add the halved plum tomatoes, stirring well to combine.

Pour the 7 cups of water into the pot and crumble in the chicken stock cube, stirring until dissolved. Return the browned pork and sausages to the pot.

Add the chopped parsley, chopped coriander, thyme leaves, oregano, salt, and sugar to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer.

Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into large chunks and add them to the pot. Continue simmering for about 20 minutes.

Peel the ripe plantains and cut them into thick rounds or chunks. Add the plantains to the pot and stir gently.

Pour the boiled red kidney beans into the pot, stirring to distribute evenly throughout the broth. Return the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Simmer the sopión for an additional 25-30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the meats to become tender. The broth should be rich and flavorful, and all ingredients should be fully cooked.
