Steps:
- Cut the pork into approximately 3cm cubes and place in a bowl or deep dish.
- Add the wine, crushed garlic cloves, bay leaves, pepper paste and paprika to the dish.
- Mix thoroughly and be sure the pork gets a good coating. Cover, and leave to marinade for at least 2 hours.
- While the pork is marinating, we can prepare our clams. Place them in a large bowl and cover them with cold salted water. You'll want to leave them for at least an hour.
- With the pork marinated, separate the pork and keep the marinade. Sear the pork in a hot pan.
- Once all of the pork is seared, pour the remaining marinade on top of the pork. Let it simmer with a lid for around 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, peel and cut the potatoes into small cubes.
- Give them a nice coating of olive oil and salt, and spread them on a baking tray. Place them in the oven at 200°. Cook them in the oven for around 30-40 minutes until they're golden brown.
- Drain the clams into a large colander or sieve, remove any with broken shells, or any clams that don't close when you touch them.
- If you've timed this correctly, we should be reaching the point where everything is nearly ready, the clams will only need around 5 minutes so pause here if your potatoes aren't quite done.
- Place all of the clams into the pan with the pork. Use a lid and let the clams steam and simmer in the liquid. They'll take around 5 to 7 minutes to cook and open.
- While the clams are cooking, spread your potatoes evenly on a plate.
- Once the clams are cooked, discard any that did not open. We think its best to remove about half of the clams from their shells and leave them in the sauce.
- Spoon the pork, clams and plenty of the sauce on top of the potato base layer!

Steps:
- 1. Place the pork in a nonaluminum container and add the 1 cup wine, paprika, bay leaf, cloves, and 3 of the garlic cloves. Toss well to mix evenly, cover, and refrigerate overnight. The next day, drain the pork, reserving the marinade. Pat the meat dry. 2. In a large frying pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the lard or warm 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Working in batches, brown the pork cubes on all sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate. 3. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons lard or warm the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the onions and saute until soft, 8-10 minutes. Add the remaining 2 cloves garlic and the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally until the tomatoes are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the browned pork to the onion mixture along with the reserved marinade, cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the pork is tender, about 1 hour. Check from time to time and add more wine if the pork threatens to scorch. 4. Add the clams, discarding any that are open or have broken shells, cover, raise the heat to high, and cook until the clams open, about 5 minutes. (Discard any clams that failed to open.) 5. Transfer the pork and clams to a warmed serving dish and sprinkle with the cilantro and parsley. Serve immediately.
