3: Cook sealed for about one and a half hours, or until the veggies are tender.
4: In a sauté pan, cook the chopped garlic and cilantro until aromatic, about 3 to 5 minutes.
5: Once the green beans are fully cooked, shred the lamb meat, remove the bone, and add the garlic and cilantro mixture. Mix well.
6: In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice, water or chicken stock, butter, and seasoning. Bring to a boil.
7: Once boiling, reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for 7 to 10 minutes. When liquid is absorbed, turn off the heat and let sit for 10 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
