Method
- Remove the tip and cap from the okra. You can leave it whole or cut it into small rounds.
- Place the okra in the water or broth with the lemon and let it rest while you prepare the sofrito.
- Heat the lard and make a sofrito with the onion, garlic, pepper, parsley and tomato puree.
- Add the ham and the other indicated meats to the sofrito.
- Add the dry wine, salt and pepper.
- Drain the okra, add it to the pot without the water and sauté everything for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Add the water or broth with the bijol and, when it starts to boil, add the rice (washed, if necessary).
- Cover the pot and cook over medium heat until the rice is tender.
