Oven-baked meat is a very tasty, juicy and soft dish, which is a worthy option for both a festive and an everyday table. In addition, when baked in meat, beneficial substances are better preserved.
It is necessary
-
- a piece of fatty pork (neck);
- ground black pepper;
- salt;
- garlic;
- Bay leaf.
Instructions
Step 1
Wash the prepared piece of pork thoroughly in cold water and pat dry with a clean paper towel. Then, with a not wide, well-sharpened knife, carefully make cuts every 5-7 centimeters. The depth of the cuts should be such that they fit the quarters of the garlic cloves.
Step 2
Put the meat on foil, sprinkle with spices, salt, cover with bay leaf, wrap, place on a baking sheet and place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees. Bake for 1, 5 hours.
Step 3
After that, increase the temperature in the oven to 220 degrees and unfold the foil so that a golden crust can form on the meat. Open the oven from time to time and pour the melted fat and juice over the meat. If desired, pour a little white or red wine over the meat 10-15 minutes before cooking.
Step 4
If you want to bake pork in the oven without foil, 1.5 hours for cooking at 180 degrees will be enough. Just be sure to periodically add water to the baking sheet so that the dish does not burn.
Step 5
To test the meat for readiness, carefully pierce it with a sharp knife. If clear juice stands out, feel free to remove the pork from the oven and serve.
Step 6
Whole piece of pork baked in the oven is a great holiday dish. Serve it in a beautiful bowl, framed by a side dish that looks great with potatoes and a vegetable salad with fresh herbs, seasoned with a little olive oil.
