Where to find ingredients
Look for the meats at a good butcher's shop or the meat section of a supermarket; the vegetables, rice, and herbs can be found in the fresh produce aisle and pantry section. If needed, pork sausage or blood sausage substitutes may be sourced from a specialist deli, but the original ingredients are ideal.
Preparation method
- Bring a pot of water seasoned with salt to the boil
- Add the meats and let them cook through
- As the meats become cooked, remove them and keep them in a warm place
- After removing all the meats, add the vegetables to the pot with the cooking broth and let them cook
- For the rice: place the desired amount of rice in a saucepan
- Add twice the volume of the stew broth to the rice
- Cook over medium heat until the rice is done, making sure it stays dry and fluffy
