    1. Peel the onions and cut them into half-moons. Blend the smaller half of the onion to a smooth paste. Put the rest of the onion in a saucepan, pour boiling water over it, and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then drain the water, transfer the onion to a deep bowl, add the distilled vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt, stir, and let it marinate for 20 minutes.
    1. Meanwhile, rinse the pork, pat it dry with a paper towel, and cut it into pieces as if for kebabs. Put the meat in a bowl, add the onion paste, season with salt, pepper, and coriander. Cover the meat with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours.
    1. Once the time is up, drain off the liquid the onion has released and spread the onion in a baking dish. Lay the meat on top, cover with foil, and put the dish in an oven preheated to 350°F (180°C); bake for one hour. Then remove the foil, raise the temperature to 400°F (200°C), and continue baking for 30 minutes.
  • Serve the meat hot, with a side of potatoes or fresh vegetables.
  • Enjoy!
