Cook the meat in a pot with boiling water, garlic, onion, and salt until tender. Remove the meat, let it cool, and shred it, reserving the cooking broth. For the sauce, blend the chipotle pepper, the tomato, and the reserved broth. Heat a deep skillet over medium heat, cook the chorizo until browned, add the onion, garlic, tomato, and bay leaf, and cook for 10 minutes. Incorporate the sauce and cook for 15 minutes or until thickened. Add the shredded meat and potatoes, cook a few more minutes, and season to taste with salt. Serve on a plate and accompany with white rice.
