Add the sliced onions, garlic cloves, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, rosemary, 1 tsp of salt, and ½ tsp of black pepper to the pot with the meat. Cover the pot with parchment paper then aluminum foil before placing the lid on top to ensure a tight seal. Roast the meat for 2 to 3 hours on medium-low heat, then for an additional hour on low heat, or until the meat is tender.
