- Brown the onions until they are a deep caramel color. This helps to give the dish flavor.
- Add the pepper and carrots and fry for about 3 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, tomato paste and ground paprika. Add back the ground beef. Finally, add the stock - you may not need to add all of it now, depending on how "wet" your mixture is.
- Place a lid on the casserole dish. Bake for about 1½ hours, stirring every half an hour. Add more stock if necessary and scrape down the sides of the casserole dish.
- Serve with pasta and a big salad.
