Butter or olive oil to fry in

- Fry the pancetta in a casserole pot 4-5 minutes. Add all prepared vegetables and fry another 5 minutes. Add the thyme and stir.
- Add the liquids, let simmer for 20 minutes. If more liquids seem to be needed, add some water (but remember, it is a casserole, not a soup).
