  2. Place in this into a large heavy base pot and bring to the boil on a low heat.  Stir occasionally to ensure that it is not burning on the bottom.  Cook for about 3 hours until the liquid has reduced by half.

  4. During the last 30 minutes of cooking time, add any additional spices or seasoning (maybe something from Grandma’s traditional recipe?) and cook.
