This is the basis for a lot of Egyptian recipes. It is preferred to stock cubes. However, cubes are gaining ground
for their price, availability and easiness to use.

Bone meat and place bones in cold water. Put over heat until boiling. Add cubed meat and keep over heat, removing
foam as soon as it forms.
PS: You can prepare this stock using only bones. You can also add 1 Bay Leaf or 2 girofle cloves but their aromas
are very pungeant and will mask other ingredients flavor.
