Cost Breakdown
Critical Success Points
- • Achieving the correct dough consistency (smooth, not dry or overly sticky).
- • Sweating the sofrito on low heat for a full hour to develop sweetness without caramelizing.
- • Cooking lentils just to tender – overcooking makes them mushy in the sauce.
Safety Warnings
- • Handle hot oil and boiling water with care to avoid burns.
- • Use a sharp knife and keep fingertips curled back when chopping.
