Buckwheat porridge in the oven in a pot with meat

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make buckwheat porridge with meat in pots? First of all, prepare all the products indicated on the list. You can take any meat. This time I have pork neck. If you have frozen meat, you should first defrost it at room temperature. Read about all the intricacies of proper defrosting in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the buckwheat several times in cold water. Read more about the intricacies of choosing buckwheat in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe. Wash a piece of pork, dry it with napkins and cut into small equal pieces. Peel the onions, garlic and carrots.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the onion into small cubes, carrots into cubes, and garlic randomly. If desired, the carrots can be grated on a coarse grater, but keep in mind that in this case they can turn into a shapeless mass in the finished dish.

4. STEP 4

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a thick-bottomed frying pan. Read about how to choose the perfect frying pan, as well as how to choose the right vegetable oil in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe. Fry the pork, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Lightly salt and pepper the meat.

5. STEP 5

   

   Remove the fried pieces to a separate plate. Place onions, carrots and garlic in the pan where the pork was cooked. Add a little oil if necessary. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until the onions and carrots are soft.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the meat in the baking pots as the first layer. I used about 100 grams of meat for each pot.

7. STEP 7

   

   Next add the fried vegetables. Place a small bay leaf in the pots.

8. STEP 8

   

   Make the final layer of buckwheat. Lightly salt everything.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour water into the pots. How much water should I use? The liquid should cover the buckwheat by about 0.5-1 cm. Keep in mind that when baking, water expands, so leave a little space to the edges of the pots (about 1-1.5 cm).

10. STEP 10

    

    Place the pots in a cold oven. This is necessary so that the pots do not deteriorate due to a sharp change in temperature. Cook buckwheat with meat for 40-50 minutes at 180-220 degrees. Baking time and temperature may differ from those indicated in the recipe. Focus on the capabilities of your oven. You can learn about the operating features of ovens by reading a separate article, link at the end of the recipe. I baked for 50 minutes at 220 degrees.

11. STEP 11

    

    Turn off the oven and leave the pots to brew for another 15-20 minutes. If you want to get crumbly porridge, then remove the pots immediately after baking. Sprinkle the finished dish with fresh herbs and serve!

Baking buckwheat in pots will be delicious even without meat. Just add mushrooms.

Lately, I’ve been addicted to cooking food in pots, so I couldn’t pass up the recipe for buckwheat porridge in a pot in the oven with meat. I already had boiled buckwheat mixed with fried rice and carrots, and that’s what I used. I had about 350 grams of pork. I had enough of all the ingredients for four 0.5 liter pots. I cut the pork into pieces, fried it and put it in the pots. Next I laid out the prepared buckwheat. I didn't have any broth. Instead, I diluted four tablespoons of sour cream in warm water (800 ml), added a mixture of spices for meat, and salt. I poured the resulting sauce into pots (200 ml each) and put them in a cold oven. Turned the oven on 180 degrees. The oven preheated for about 20 minutes, and the buckwheat and meat cooked for another 15 minutes. The dish came out very aromatic, satisfying and tasty. The pork turned out tender and soft. My husband said that it would be even tastier with garlic. Thank you very much for the recipe!

A miracle recipe for gourmets! Incredibly tasty, fast and very simple! More recently, I had a firm stereotype that only fish or meat can be cooked in pots, and with rare exceptions, potatoes too. A real surprise for me was a culinary recipe called Buckwheat porridge in a pot in the oven with meat. I immediately wanted to try cooking this interesting food. And I didn’t regret it, it’s incredibly delicious! Thank you very much for the recipe!
