Cook in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ circulating air: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Stir together the saffron threads and 4 tablespoons of water. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins. Put the garlic and olive oil into a tall mixing bowl and blend with the hand blender.
Stir saffron threads into the puree with the water and season with salt. Wash the meat, dab dry and dice coarsely. Heat the oil in 3 portions in a pan and fry the meat in portions for 3-4 minutes, turning vigorously. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm. Serve the meat garnished with olives, thyme and rosemary on a plate. Add the garlic puree in a small bowl
