Cooking methods
On the stove
Cook covered over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally, until everything is tender and the sauce is lightly thickened.
On induction
Use medium heat to start, then reduce to low once simmering. Keep the pot partially covered and stir from time to time.
Over an open fire
Cook in a heavy pot over steady embers or a very gentle fire, keeping the stew at a slow simmer and stirring often enough to prevent sticking.
