Place the meat back into the pan along with the vegetables, Add wine, stock or water, and herbs or spices. Make sure that the liquid covers at least half to ó of the meat and bring to a gentle simmer.
Cover with a lid and transfer into the preheated oven or continue to simmer gently on the hob at a very low temperature. We recommend the oven method as the process is gentler and the meat does not stick to the pot. Check from time to time and top up with liquid if needed.
