Basic preparations

stew with mushrooms

Many recipes for meat with mushrooms include a few simple techniques. They boil down to one banal principle - the processing of the main products is carried out separately from each other. It is known that some need more time to be ready than others.

lemon / tangerine juice;
hops-suneli;

All chopped pieces should be thoroughly lubricated, thoroughly rubbing the essence into the fibers. Cover the pan with a lid and refrigerate. Then you can do the mushrooms.

Before heat treatment, it is advisable to soak the mushrooms in cold water for 5 minutes with citric acid, and then boil the same amount. When they are dry, they should be fried with onions.

You need to salt the dish during the cooking process. Salt has preservative properties, drawing the necessary juices from food.

With a French accent

To bake French-style meat with mushrooms in the oven, you need to buy 1.5 kg of pork (tenderloin or chop), as well as 300-400 g of mushrooms (canned). A pack of mayonnaise and hard cheese will be used to dress the dish. A few bouncy tomatoes and a small onion add sophistication to the dish. After all the products are cleaned and washed, you can proceed to the following processes:

wipe the pork with a paper towel and cut into small pieces;
beat them off (up to a centimeter in thickness) with a kitchen hammer, wrapped in cling film;
grease a baking sheet. Put the pieces so that there are gaps between them;
sprinkle with salt and pepper (since they are thin, you can also on one side);
put onion fried until golden brown on top;
cut the tomatoes into 0.5 cm slices and cover the pork with them;
pour over mayonnaise (thin thread). Cover with grated cheese (consume only half);
cut mushrooms into rings and arrange them beautifully;
repeat the penultimate procedure again.

Send all this into an oven heated to 200 ° C for 35-40 minutes. In this case, you need to ensure that nothing is burnt. Having heard the pungent smell of burning, you need to draw out the food with a cut. The stacking sequence of the ingredients used in French-style meat with mushrooms is not critical.
