  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make jellied meat from chicken and pork feet? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Peel the carrots. Wash the onion well, right in the peel. Decide for yourself whether to peel the onion or not. If you add it in the husk, the broth will acquire a beautiful golden color.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Wash the pork legs and scrape them thoroughly with a knife. Check especially carefully that there are no areas with stubble. If they are, it is better to burn them or cut them off. Place the legs in a container, fill with cold water until they are completely covered with liquid and leave overnight.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Place pork legs in a large saucepan and add 2 liters of water.

  4. STEP 4

    Wash the chicken. If you have a whole carcass, cut it into portions. I had ready-made parts - 3 fillets and 2 legs.

  7. STEP 7

    Add the chicken to the legs and cook everything together for another 40 minutes.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Strain the broth through a sieve. Taste the broth and add salt if necessary.

  11. STEP 11

    If desired, you can cut the boiled carrots into flower circles to decorate the jellied meat. Place carrots and small sprigs of parsley into portioned molds.

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    Spread shredded chicken on top.

  13. STEP 13

    STEP 13

    Pour the broth over everything. Wait until the broth cools to room temperature, then put the jellied meat in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours to harden. If you are going to keep the jellied meat on the balcony, then you do not need to pre-cool it.

  14. STEP 14

    STEP 14

    Turn the finished jellied meat out of the molds onto a plate, garnish with herbs and serve immediately. Bon appetit!

New Year is coming soon, but I already want some jellied meat. It’s good that on the site you can find different options for preparing this healthy snack. From all the variety, I chose a recipe for jellied chicken and pork legs. I just have three legs and a couple of chicken legs left. As recommended by the author, I soaked my feet overnight. I got three liters of water because the pan was wide and I had to cover the legs. In addition to the seasonings and vegetables listed in the recipe, I added frozen dill stems and umbrellas. I put the garlic directly into the broth so that it gave off its aroma, but was not noticeable in the finished jellied meat. All this wealth was cooked for about five hours to ensure it softened. I just love going through all these bones) I strained the broth through a fine sieve and removed the fat from the surface. I ended up with quite a lot of jellied meat! It is very tasty, aromatic, not greasy, filling. The jellied meat froze perfectly, I like it when it is dense and easy to cut. Great recipe!
