- With a lid on, place the pan on a high heat until boiling.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook for 1 hour or until the meat is easily pulled from the bone.
- Take off the heat and allow pot to cool for 20 minutes.

Use any cheap cut of meat with the bone in (chicken wings, chicken drumsticks, lamb neck, lamb shank, soup bones).
Healthy tip!
Choose plain water or soda water in place of a sugary drink.
