- Cover with water and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer and continue cooking for 5 minutes; set aside.
- Put the meat in a large stock pot and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until fat is rendered.
- Add the onion, diced carrot, and garlic. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 6 to 8 minutes.
- Add peas and enough water to cover by 2 inches.
