Cover and simmer for 20 minutes, then transfer to large pot before transferring that pot into the insulating chamber of the thermal cooker for a minimum 3 hours hours, preferably 6-8 hours.(I cooked ours for 7 hours).
Season as desired & stir in sour cream just before serving. Serve with fettuccine or rice.
Additional Notes: Paprika can go bitter if heated without water.
In the interest of losing weight, I omitted the sour cream and I don't think anyone even noticed.
This ended up being sufficient for 8 meals (with 2 cups of rice all cooked up). It is an excellent meal to freeze for days ahead when you haven't the time or energy to cook at all.
