Method
1. Pre-heat oven to 160C/320F/Gas 2. 2. Place a large saucepan, or casserole on a high heat. 3. When very hot add the olive oil and brown the pork on all sides. 4. Add the onion and stir on heat for a minute until the onion is slightly golden. 5. Add the red wine and chicken stock and bring to the boil. 6. Season with salt and pepper and place in the pre-heated oven. 7. Cook for 1¼ to two hours, depending on the cut of meat, until it is lovely and tender. 8. Whilst the meat is cooking, place in a small saucepan the red wine vinegar and the sugar, stir till the sugar dissolves and then boil for two minutes. 9. Add the chopped chocolate, stir it, then add the raisins and then set aside to allow the raisins to plump up in the liquid. 10. When the meat is cooked (it should be very tender, if it is not, cook it for longer), add the chocolate and vinegar
mixture and the toasted pine nuts. 11. Serve with rice.
