Directions
Place the pieces of meat in the pot, and add enough water to completely cover them. ≈ 3 min
Once the water has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low.
Once the meat is cooked, add the ingredients (2). ≈ 3 min
If needed, add a little more water and let it simmer for a bit longer so that the flavors can fully penetrate the meat.
The meat is already cooked, and there is very little liquid left. ≈ 3 min
Turn off the heat when the liquid starts to simmer.
Use a large wooden spoon or another utensil (I had planned to use a spatula, but I find that a large spoon with a rounded bottom is more practical) to completely crush the meat. ≈ 4 min
Continue until there is no liquid left, which should take about 10 minutes.
Once the meat is completely mashed, you shouldn’t see any liquid remaining. ≈ 3 min
Turn the heat to low and stir constantly until the water in the meat has completely evaporated and the color turns a golden yellow.
Once the meat is cooked through, turn off the heat and pour it into (3). ≈ 3 min
Approximately 250 grams of meat may be enough to prepare a whole bottle. ≈ 3 min
