- Place the mold in the hot oven for a few minutes to heat the oil (very important step).
- Pour all the mixture into the hot pan and bake on the middle rack of the oven.
- After 25 minutes of baking, open the oven and check the cooking with a skewer. It must come out clean but wet.
- Lower the oven temperature to 350 F (180˚C).
- Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle generously with the broth previously reserved. Bake again immediately for 25 minutes.
