👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 150°C (300°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Sprinkle the smoked paprika, sugar and salt over the meat on all sides.
  3. 3
    In an ovenproof pot, set the meat on the onion and add the tomato paste, vinegar and water.
    Cast-iron pot
