Cut the meat into 1 inch cubes and chop the onions.
Fry the onions in the oil or fat over high heat for 6-10 minutes, until it becomes lightly golden.
Take off the stove, add paprika and stir.
Put back on the stove over medium-high heat. Add the meat and sear for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add salt, black pepper and tomato paste. Let it cook over high heat for 10 minutes. It will release its juices first and then evaporate almost all liquids.
Set the heat to low. Add ½ cup of water at a time, cover, and let it simmer slowly for about 90 minutes or until the meat becomes tender. Add ½ cup of water every time when the liquids evaporated.
