Voiceover. Set out a scale and the equipment for Harula. Heat to 350°F / 177°C oil and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh potato, all-purpose flour, egg, cooked bacon, garlic, feta, kosher salt. Harula is cooked in Side as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Fry thick potato cakes with garlic and bacon and crumble feta over them. Feta stands in for bryndza. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.

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

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. Harula 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. Harula 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.

Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
