Dontsov's cookbook lazyPress archives For this dish, of course, you first need a clay pot, preferably a separate one for each serving. Now it is very easy to buy this dish. And keep in mind: in a cheap pot, meat will cook in exactly the same way as in an expensive one. Clay, it is clay, do not paint it from above. New earthenware covered with glaze should be treated: boil a 4% acetic acid solution in it for half an hour to remove soluble lead from the glaze.

Empty pots are best kept open, if you close them with lids, you will soon smell an unpleasant odor that is not easy to remove. Even in ceramic dishes, you should not keep fat for a long time. If a tiny crack appears on the bottom of your pot, you can take a couple of sugar lumps, melt it into syrup, pour it into the "invalid" and heat it over the fire. But this method is not suitable for large cracks; for you will need about 1/2 kg of beef or pork pulp. First, odorless vegetable oil is poured into the bottom of the pot. Then put everything in layers: cut 1 large onion, put it in a pot, on top arrange 1 chopped carrot, a tomato and a piece of meat, then again onions, carrots, tomatoes, meat, onions, carrots, tomatoes, meat ... The very last layer should consist of vegetables ... Sprinkle grated cheese on top and place in the oven. Cooking time is approximately 1 hour 30 minutes. Vegetables can be varied. Potatoes, cauliflower, bell peppers are very well suited for this dish. If you like, add canned mushrooms. Just do not add water to the pot, you can add sour cream. In winter, it is perfectly acceptable to make this dish using frozen mixes. In the oven, you can make many delicious dishes. Their main charm for the hostess is that you will spend a minimum of labor on preparing such a dish. The main thing is to remove it from the oven in time.
