Quite often, after cooking broth or soup, many housewives have boiled meat. Most are wondering what can be prepared from it. It is worth noting that boiled meat can be used both for preparing main dishes and for preparing all kinds of salads and snacks, pie fillings, etc.
What can be cooked from boiled meat
The simplest and most versatile dish that can be prepared from any type of meat is stew.
You will need:
- 400 grams of boiled meat;
- four to five pieces of potatoes;
- two sour apples;
- three pickles;
- a bunch of greens;
- pepper and salt (to taste);
- a tablespoon of flour;
- a tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Cut the meat into small pieces. Peel the potatoes, rinse them and slice them just like the meat. Core the apples, cut the fruits and cucumbers. Heat a frying pan, pour oil into it, add flour and heat it so that it becomes slightly brownish in color (it is very important to make sure that the flour does not burn in any way). Add a glass of water to the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Transfer the chopped meat, vegetables and fruits to a saucepan, fill them with the prepared broth and put on fire. As soon as the mass boils, reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for 30 minutes. After a while, remove the pan from the heat, add pre-chopped greens to it and leave it under a closed lid for another 10-15 minutes. The stew with meat is ready.
