Preparing the meat Start by cutting the pork shoulder into suitable pieces, no larger than 4-5 cm. This will allow the meat to cook evenly and absorb all the delicious flavors. 2. Boiling the meat Place the pieces of meat in a cauldron and add enough cold water to cover them. Add salt, then let everything boil over medium heat. When the water starts to boil, discard the initial water and replace it with clean water. This is a technique that helps remove impurities and excess fat. 3. Seasoning After adding the clean water, add salt, pepper, bay leaves, and let it boil over medium heat for about 30 minutes. This process will make the meat tender and full of flavor. 4. Adding the vegetables In the meantime, chop the onion and red bell pepper into small cubes. When the meat is almost cooked, add the onion and bell pepper to the cauldron. Mix well to combine the ingredients. 5. Adding the tomato paste and spices Add 2-3 tablespoons of tomato paste (or red pepper paste) and finely chopped garlic cloves. You can also add thyme to taste. Let everything boil until the sauce reduces and becomes more concentrated, about 30-40 minutes. 6. Cooking the sausages In a non-stick pan, brown the sausages cut into suitable pieces. This step will add a crunchy texture and a special flavor to your dish. 7. Finalizing the dish Near the end of cooking, add the cup of wine and the browned sausages to the cauldron. Let it boil for 5-10 minutes, so the flavors combine. Serving and Suggestions The pork roast in a cauldron is served warm, alongside fluffy polenta that will absorb all the delicious juices.
