  7. When it starts to boil reduce heat to low.
  8. Cover and let it simmer for 20 minute.
  9. NO PEEKING!
  10. After the full 20 minute uncover and check to see if all of the liquid has been absorbed.
  11. It wants to be moist but have no visible liquid.
  12. Serve.
  13. NOTE; This is a great one to play with.
  14. Try frying chopped Salt Pork instead of Olive Oil.
  15. If you use Bacon instead, the flavor is again different.
  16. Turn it into a 1 dish meal; at step#3 add Danish or Italian meat balls.(See my other recipes).
  17. Play with the heat; try adding chillies of various flavors and amounts. Add these at step # 3.
