Step 1

Transfer the fried meat to a saucepan. Pour half a cup of boiling water into the frying pan and, using a wooden spatula, dissolve all the remaining juices and residue from frying in the water. Pour this mixture into the saucepan and add more boiling water, bringing the total liquid volume to about 1 liter. Simmer the lamb over low heat for 15–20 minutes.
