⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.

Carefully pour in the stock (it spatters in the hot oil), season with salt and black pepper and bring to a boil. Turn down to low, cover and simmer 10–12 minutes, until all the liquid is absorbed.

💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
