Ingredients

Instructions

1. In a medium-heat fry pan, warm about 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then brown the bacon for a couple of minutes.
2. Add the pork shoulder, salt and pepper, and brown the meat well on all sides.
3. In a Dutch oven, heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil, then cook the onion until golden brown.
4. Add the herbs and mushrooms, salt the mushrooms, and sauté for a few minutes.
5. Add the garlic and, once fragrant, add the bell pepper, celery, wine, tomatoes, jalapeno and stock.
6. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to very low and simmer for about 1 to 1½ hours, until the meat is tender, stirring every 15 to 20 minutes so nothing sticks to the bottom.
7. If the sauce is too thin, thicken it with cornstarch or a cooked roux; if using raw flour, cook it for at least another 15 to 20 minutes while stirring constantly.
8. Adjust the seasoning and serve.
