Cook in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for approx. 10 minutes in medium heat. Fry the onion cubes and garlic in the hot frying fat for 1-2 minutes. Add tomato paste and sugar and roast for 1-2 minutes or allow to caramelize. Deglaze with stock and vinegar, simmer for 6-7 minutes. Remove the meat, wrap in foil and let it rest in a warm place for about 5 minutes.
