While the bacon cooks, prepare potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then place them in the oven at 180-200°C for about 30 minutes.

Remove the bacon from the pot and set aside, leaving some fat in the pot.

Add the marinated guanaco meat and vegetables to the pot with the bacon fat.

Season with salt and black pepper, and add concentrated tomato.

Add mushrooms and pickled pearl onions to the pot.

Add fresh rosemary sprigs without chopping them.

Cook everything together, allowing it to seal and brown for a few minutes.
