Steps

73 Minutes

1

Sauté the meat on all sides in the oil in a deep pot to seal it. Add the onion until it colors, along with the peppercorns (frying them releases all their aromas).
2

Deglaze with the wine and let it boil for 4-5 minutes until the alcohol evaporates.
3

Add the water and salt.
4

Cover the pot and lower the heat. Simmer for about 45 minutes until the pork is slightly tender (not fully cooked).
5

Gradually add the cabbage, stirring to fit it into the pot.
6

Once it wilts and reduces in volume, add the carrots and potatoes. Mix well, cover, and let cook for another 40-45 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the meat is well cooked.
7

Check the salt and add the tomato sauce (or paste), paprika, oregano, and lemon juice. Let it cook for another 10-15 minutes to thicken slightly, turn off the heat, and leave the dish on the warm burner until serving time.
