Brown the lamb with onions in the pot's bottom.
Layer strictly: potatoes, carrots, beans on top of the meat. Pour wine and stock down the side.
Lid on. Coals low. Three hours. NO STIRRING.
π‘ Every potjie has a guest who reaches for the spoon. Guard the lid; friendships recover.
Fold together once at the end and serve over pap or rice.
The potjie's law: layers go in once, the lid stays shut, and stirring is treason until the end. Around it, hours pass, stories inflate, and the pot does everything important.
