1. Preheat the oven to 190C
2. For the Mediterranean onion base: Add all the ingredients for the base to a covered pan, sweat for about 15 mins until soft and translucent.
3. Remove from the pan and set to one side.
4. Cut the pork into mouth-sized pieces and toss in the paprika.
5. Heat the veg oil in the pan, add the paprika-coated pork pieces and bacon and fry until brown.
6. Return the 2 tbsp of the onion base to the pan with the rest of the ingredients and bring to the boil.
7. Season with salt and pepper.
8. Pour into a large ovenproof dish and cover tightly with foil.
9. Cook for 30 mins at this temperature and then turn down to 180C for another 45 minutes to 1 hour.
10. The pork should be meltingly tender by this point.
11. Take out of the oven and sprinkle 1 tbsp of plain flour over the surface of the sauce and wait for it to be soaked up.
12. Top everything into a saucepan, stir thoroughly and bring to the boil to cook the flour and allow the sauce to thicken.

14. Reheat over a gentle heat before serving.
15. It can also be frozen.
