Cut the onions into cubes or narrow wedges and fry them vigorously in the olive oil for a few minutes. Reduce the heat, add tomato paste and paprika powder. Sauté carefully so that nothing gets bitter afterwards. Deglaze with a strong dash of balsamic vinegar. Pour in the red wine and half a liter of water and simmer for a few minutes.
In the meantime, cut the meat into 3 cm cubes. Add the meat with the bay leaves, marjoram, caraway seeds and diced garlic to the stock and simmer on a low flame until the meat is soft and the onions have largely disintegrated. You should estimate two hours for this. Season to taste with salt, hot paprika and possibly a little balsamic vinegar.
Butter dumplings or simply noodles go very well with it.
