1 pork leg ( whole or chopped)
3 cloves garlic
1 cup Pineapple juice
1/2 cup soy sauce

Procedure:
1. In a pot put the pork leg, garlic, soy sauce, peppercorn then bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling allow the soy sauce to darken the color of the meat by simmering it continuously. 
2. Add the water, Sprite and pineapple juice then bring to boil, when boiling reduce the heat and simmer until tender. When the meat is already tender and it still has a lot of liquid, increase the heat to high allowing the water to evaporate making the pata tim saucy and shiny.
