How to make stew in the oven

Before cooking, you need to prepare all the ingredients. Take the chilled meat and cut it into large cubes, add salt, and let it sit for a while.

As I already said, you can use any meat for this recipe: both fatty and not very fatty. Today I will make pork stew.

Next, let's prepare sterilized jars. It is more convenient to use half-liter ones.

Place peppercorns and bay leaves on the bottom. Place the prepared pieces of meat on top, not tightly, leaving a small distance between them.

Place the jars on a baking sheet and place them in a cold oven. We heat it to 250 degrees, as soon as it boils we reduce it to 180.Cooking time is 2.5 hours.

Finely chop the lard and place it in a frying pan with a thick bottom.

If desired, you can grind it in a meat grinder. Place on low heat and render the fat for about 30 minutes.

We take the finished meat out of the oven, pour melted lard on top and turn the jars upside down. When the fat has solidified, the stew is ready for storage.

It can be served on the table with any cereals, potatoes and pasta.

Homemade stew stores well both in the refrigerator and in the basement.
