Reduce heat to medium and lightly spray pot again with oil. Add onions and capsicum, cook, covered, for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned. Add paprika and flour, cook, stirring for 1 minute. Gradually add stock, stirring constantly until mixture comes to the boil.
