2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 cup soy sauce
6 whole allspice
ginger, thumb-size, peeled, mashed and shredded
1 teaspoon MSG
1/4 cup vinegar
3 bay leaves
salt and pepper to taste

Place pork and chicken in large saucepan.
Add all spices and liquids to pork.
Add enough water to barely cover meat.
Cover and simmer over medium flame until most of sauce has evaporated, except for about 1/2 cup.
