How to return model with relationsip in laravel?

I have two model Product and Category.

The categories table have id, and name columns.

While the products table have id, name, and category_id [foreign_key to category].

Here is my below code (already have category with values of 1, "School Supply"):

$product = new Product;
$product->category_id = 1;
$product->name = "pencil";
$product->save();

return $product->with('category');

My question is why it returns an error below when I try to get the data with the relation model? Someone knows how to do it exactly?

You can lazy eager load the relations using load method instead of with.

with is used for eager loading.

$product->load('category');
return $product;
