Step 1
Shot. Zrazy: weighed ingredients beside the heating pan. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo. Show the action, then a jump cut through the wait. Do not film the full Heat 5 min in real time.
Voiceover. Set out a scale and the equipment for Zrazy. Heat to 325°F / 163°C in the oven, or a quiet simmer on the stove and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh beef sirloin, cooked bacon, dijon mustard, yellow onion, low-sodium beef broth, all-purpose flour, kosher salt. Zrazy is cooked in Home as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Roll thin beef around bacon and mustard, brown the rolls, and braise them in onion and broth. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.

Shot. Zrazy: checking the center for doneness. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo.

Slate words for the editor: lacquer, bloom, nacre, cedar, olive, basket, oven, drizzle, tender, jute.

Scene 12 · mistakes · 7s
If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.
Voiceover. Zrazy looks done at the edge and is still raw in the center. Trust the cue, not the color. Check the thickest piece and give it a few more minutes. Zrazy turned out salty, dry, or watery. Weigh the salt and the liquid next time. Keep the heat at the temperature in the method, and stop when the doneness cue appears.

Machine-readable script for a later video tool. Scene durations are edit lengths, not cooking times. Long simmers and bakes are jump cuts. Order: hook, title, mise, equipment, one scene per numbered step (shot, on-screen text, voiceover, duration), doneness, fixes, storage, nutrition, plate, and the closing CTA. Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
