Boiled pork is a traditional festive dish for Easter.
The taste of juicy and aromatic boiled pork depends not only on the meat you choose, but also on the correct preparation. There are different ways to bake boiled pork, but I chose a simple, perfect recipe for myself, in which tender juicy meat is combined with the aroma of spices.
Take note of a few simple tips and the boiled pork will turn out to be very tasty.
Ideal for this recipe is pork loin, scoop or collar with loose fat. I do not recommend buying the bitten part, the boiled pork will be dry.

Ingredients:
pork meat 2 kg (shoulder, back or neck)
garlic 4-5 cloves
salt to taste (2-3 tbsp)
ground ginger 1 tsp
ground black pepper 1 tsp
ground bay leaf 1 tsp
ground red pepper 1 tsp
- Before cooking boiled pork, the meat must be washed and dried with napkins.
- Salt the pork leg on all sides, then rub in well, rubbing in the salt with massage movements.
- In a checkerboard pattern, make cuts with a knife in the depth of the meat piece (1-2 cm) on both sides. Cut the garlic cloves in half to keep the pieces sharp, stuffing the piece of meat from all sides.
- Mix the spices, rub the pulp with the spices mixture on all sides.
- The main thing is to let the meat brew for some time so that it is saturated with the smell of spices. Leave the pork for at least 4 hours at room temperature or refrigerate overnight.
- To prevent the meat from getting dry, it should be fried in a dry frying pan on both sides until golden brown before baking. Enough for 1-2 minutes from each side.
- Place the meat tightly in a food foil. You need to screw it up in 3-4 layers, trying to keep it dry, this will keep the juiciness.
- Juicy boiled pork will turn out only if it is not overdried. Pour cold water into the bottom of a baking tray.
- Send the meat to a preheated oven to 180 degrees for 2 hours.
- Remember a simple rule: 1 kg of meat - bake for 1 hour and no more, a piece of 2 kg - bake for 2 hours.
- After baking, press down the pork in foil with a light weight and let cool. This simple secret allows you to evenly cut the meat into pieces. You need to cut the meat with plattsin over the fibers.
- A whole piece of prepared boiled pork can be sprinkled with red pepper if desired. In addition to meat, serve mustard and horseradish.
Bon Appetit! All with the Coming Bright holiday of Easter. Be healthy!
