Method
- 1
Cut the meat into 3 cm cubes, brown in batches in hot oil, remove.
- 2
Slowly fry the sliced onions in the same pot for 15 minutes until golden, add the garlic and tomato purée briefly.
- 3
Off the heat, stir in the paprika and deglaze immediately with the wine — that way it does not turn bitter.
- 4
Return the meat, add the stock, caraway and marjoram, braise covered on a low heat for 2 hours.
- 5
Season — the onions have dissolved and thickened the sauce on their own.
