3. Once the meat is cooked, throw all of the vegetables and water into the pot. Rise the heat to high.

The vegetables are only simmering on the bottom where it is in contact with the liquid, so use something like a large wooden spoon to mix everything around, but not too vigorously or else the vegetables will begin to crumble and break.
