How to stew potatoes with meat in a saucepan, slow cooker, cauldron, or frying pan. Step-by-step recipes

Potatoes with meat in a cauldron

You can cook potatoes with meat in a cauldron at the dacha, outdoors by the fire or at home on the stove. In any case, the meat prepared according to this recipe will be juicy, and the potatoes will be soaked in vegetable sauce and will become soft and aromatic.

Any type of meat is suitable for stewing in a cauldron, but due to its availability, beef or pork is used more often than others, and lamb is used less often. You can cook it with chicken, but the taste will not be as rich and bright.

Today we will use beef. From vegetables we will take potatoes, carrots, onions, sweet peppers and pickled tomatoes. You can use a different set of vegetables if you wish. The main thing is to take into account their cooking time, since the beef with vegetables will simmer in the cauldron for a long time, at least 1 hour (by the way, you can cook not on the stove, but put it in the oven, then the time should be increased to 1.5-2 hours so that the meat with vegetables managed to reach condition). When stewed slowly, the beef will soften, and the potatoes will be saturated with vegetable juices and will be very aromatic.

How to cook potatoes with meat

The cauldron is unique in that it maintains a high temperature for a long time, since the thick cast-iron walls retain heat well. By heating evenly, it allows you to prepare delicious dishes that would never be possible in a saucepan or frying pan.

Stewed potatoes with meat in a cauldron turns out not quite stewed. A special cooking technology allows you to get fried products on the outside and juicy on the inside. To achieve this, you must first heat the vegetable oil in a cauldron. Some use fat, lard or fat tail. Then add the potatoes in portions to the oil or fat and leave to fry for about 5 minutes. During this time, the vegetable will acquire a golden crust, but will not be fully cooked.

Next, pieces of meat are placed in oil for 5 minutes to seal all the juices inside and get that crispy crust. This is more difficult to achieve in a cauldron over a fire than on an outdoor stove. You need to monitor the state of the flame and keep the oil boiling.

When the potatoes and tenderloin are fried, proceed to adding all the ingredients and the final stage of cooking. The technology is as follows:

  • change the oil in the cauldron;
  • throw garlic cloves into hot oil and let cook for a couple of minutes;
  • put the first layer of potatoes, then meat and arrange everything with onion rings;
  • repeat layers;
  • pour in about 1 glass of water, cover the food with a plate, and close the cauldron with a lid on top.

In this state, the food will cook for about 1 hour. All this time you don’t have to watch the dish. The ingredients will simmer slowly, blending their juices and flavors.

Stewed potatoes with meat, cut into cubes or strips, as for fries, are cooked much faster. First, small pieces of meat are fried in oil, then carrots and onions, and only after that chopped potatoes are added to the stew. In a cauldron, all products need to simmer for 30 minutes. If desired, you can add a couple of spoons of tomato sauce with the water that is added to the cauldron.

Preparation

Rinse the beef, dry it and cut it into pieces approximately 3x3 cm in size. For this recipe, it is best to take the meat of a young animal, it will cook faster and will not be tough.

Heat a cauldron, pour in oil and fry the meat until golden brown. Our task is not to cook the beef completely, but to brown it so that all the juice remains inside. Therefore, frying should be quick, over high heat.

While the meat is cooking, cut the onions and carrots into half rings. Add vegetables to the cauldron. Continue stir-frying for 4-5 minutes.

Grind the tomatoes in a blender (it is best to use tomatoes in their own juice; if you don’t have these, then take regular pickled tomatoes that are rolled with vinegar - do not forget to remove the skin from them), pour into the cauldron. Add diced bell pepper. Add bay leaf, ground black pepper, thyme and about 0.5 tsp. salt. Stir and fry everything together for a couple more minutes.

Peel the potatoes, wash them, chop them coarsely and place them in a cauldron on top of the beef - tightly. Sprinkle with dried dill and about 1 tsp. salt. Don't mix!

Fill with hot water - it should not completely cover the potatoes, but reach somewhere up to half of the upper tubers (as in the photo). Without stirring, cover the cauldron with a lid. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer the beef and potatoes for 1 hour.

About halfway through the stew, add the garlic, chopped with a knife. Adjust the amount of salt to taste.

Now that the beef stewed with potatoes in a cauldron is ready, you can carefully mix it and serve it. In addition, it would be nice to serve homemade pickles - barrel cucumbers, pickled tomatoes, hot peppers and sauerkraut, you can add a portion of fresh herbs (place directly on plates).

On the second day, the dish can be reheated, it will remain just as tasty, thicken a little and absorb the taste of the sauce and the aromas of spices even more strongly, so I recommend preparing a double portion at once. Enjoy your meal!

  • Veal - 1 kg.
  • Onions - 2 pcs.
  • Garlic - 1 head
  • Vegetable oil - 200 gr.
  • Seasoning for meat, any to taste, I used: coriander, ground black pepper, dried thyme, cumin.

Recipe for potatoes with lamb and veal meat baked in a cast iron cauldron. Before cooking, the meat is marinated in salt and spices, then the oil is heated in a cauldron, in which the potatoes and meat are quickly fried separately, and finally, the potatoes and meat are placed in the cauldron, where they are baked until fully cooked along with onions and garlic.

A simple way to cook baked meat with potatoes in a real cast iron cauldron. It is better to take medium-sized potatoes, if you use large ones, you need to cut them in half, you can use any meat you like, for example, to prepare the dish described below, I used lamb shanks and veal pulp, but you can take any parts, both with bones and and without them. So, we sorted that out, now I’ll describe how I prepared very tasty potatoes with meat baked in a cauldron!

We begin preparing a dish of potatoes and meat by processing and marinating the meat. Naturally, only the best and freshest meat will be used for such a dish, I was not too lazy to go to the market and buy the freshest lamb and a small, but dog, very expensive piece of veal... We wash the meat and cut it off at our discretion, whichever one doesn’t like. Personally, I “gave up” on the second one, the meat was so fresh that I decided to chew it along with all the films and veins... We continue... we put the washed meat on display, dry it (or just let the water drain thoroughly) and add a small amount of salt, rubbing salt all pieces of meat using your hands. In terms of size, the pieces of meat should be large in order to retain the juice during subsequent long-term cooking...

After all pieces of meat have been rubbed with salt, generously sprinkle the meat with black pepper,

Then, sprinkle the meat with spices and rub our meat thoroughly with them. In terms of proportions, everything is to taste, but if anyone is interested, I added: 1 teaspoon of coriander, about 1 teaspoon of ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme and about half a teaspoon of zirra.

Leave the meat, salted and rubbed with spices, to salt and become saturated with the aroma of spices for one hour (or better yet, 2-3), preferably in a cool place. Of course, it is advisable to cover it with something so that it does not become weathered during marinating. For example, you can cover the meat with a piece of foil or just a plastic bag. Another consideration - in theory, in principle, it is not necessary to salt and marinate the meat at all, but I wanted it to be baked already marinated, so that the taste would be more rich, but if someone doesn’t have a lot of time, you don’t have to waste it on marinating, I guess it will turn out delicious too!

While the meat is marinating, peel the potatoes, a couple of onions, and a head of garlic, and at the end of the allotted time for marinating the meat,

We set the cauldron on the fire (it was minus 30 outside, so I set the cauldron on gas), and pour about a glass of vegetable oil into it, and while it is heating up,

Wipe dry all potatoes and onions with a towel (either regular or paper),

Place the dried potatoes and onions in a separate container.

Well, as soon as the oil in the cauldron is very hot, we begin to fry our potatoes one by one, no more than 5 tubers at a time, until golden brown. Please note that the essence of this step is not to cook the potatoes, but to bake them until golden brown, and don’t be confused by the fact that the potatoes will remain raw inside... frying the potatoes takes about 5 minutes, no more!

We catch the baked potatoes of the first batch with a slotted spoon, transfer them to a separate plate, and immediately add a small amount of salt, wait 1-2 minutes to heat the oil, and put a new batch into the cauldron,

We fry all the potatoes in this way, and for a while we leave them in a deep plate to await their fate, and at this time, we begin to fry the meat!

Place the veal in boiling oil and

Bake it for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown (not until done!!!). Yes, it’s high time we explained why we do this... We first quickly fry the potatoes and meat until baked in order to retain their juice inside, so that during the subsequent baking of the potatoes and meat everything will remain inside...

Then we do the same with the chopped lamb,

And finally, fry the shanks until golden brown.

As soon as the potatoes and meat have been fried, we no longer need so much oil in the cauldron, so we use a ladle to almost completely scoop it out of the cauldron, leaving just a little oil (about 0.5 cm) on the bottom,

Next, the temperature of the fire under the cauldron needs to be reduced a little, and you can put potatoes in the cauldron at the very bottom - first,

Then the pieces of meat, which we have larger, and which we have with bones. The meat and potatoes can be topped with quartered onions at this point,

Then another layer of the remaining meat is laid out, which is already topped with garlic cloves. As soon as the potatoes and meat are placed in a cauldron and topped with onions and garlic, it must be covered with a wide dish in order to ensure that heat is retained during the baking process.

Next, just a little boiling water from the kettle is poured into the cauldron (no more than half a glass),

After which the cauldron is closed with a lid, and in this state the potatoes and meat should be cooked over moderate heat for about an hour and a half.

After the specified time has passed, open the lid, remove the dish and observe the potatoes and meat in approximately the same condition as shown in the recipe photo,

Place the potatoes and meat on a separate plate and immediately eat this aromatic dish hot. The potatoes should turn out crumbly and very baked, and the meat should be soft and juicy.

Well, this is a photo of the potatoes with meat that I heated up for myself the next day... it was of course tasty too, but it wasn’t very close compared to the potatoes and meat that you serve yourself from a cauldron immediately after preparing the dish! Bon appetit everyone, and good luck in preparing potatoes and meat baked in a cauldron!

Stewed potatoes with meat in a cauldron - step-by-step recipe with photos

This time I had rather fatty pork, but that’s good - potatoes love fat, it won’t be superfluous at all. I washed the meat, dried it and cut it into large pieces so that each one had fat.

I immediately peeled and cut the vegetables: potatoes into pieces - neither large nor small, carrots into half circles, onions into large half rings. If you chop everything finely, then when stewing the vegetables will soften and you will get vegetable porridge.

She poured oil into the cauldron, heated it very hot and put in the pork. Fry for about ten minutes, until browned, over medium heat.

I turned down the heat, and in about ten minutes the onion softened and gave off its flavor to the oil and meat.

Added carrots. I fried it for a short time, a few minutes.

I loaded the potatoes into the cauldron. Ours is crumbly and boils well, so I chop it coarsely. Mixed with meat, peppered, seasoned with paprika. I didn’t add any other spices, but you can cook it as you like, you can add ready-made seasoning. So, stirring, over a very low heat, I stewed the potatoes a little without adding water.

I poured boiling water to cover the potatoes completely. I added salt. I waited until it started boiling, covered it tightly with a lid and put the cauldron with potatoes and meat in the oven, it was already preheated to 180 degrees. I stewed for an hour.

I took it out - you see, the liquid almost did not evaporate. I tried the potatoes, they were already completely ready. I added tomatoes in their own juice, after mashing them with a fork. You can add tomato juice or sauce, diluted pasta. I put it in the oven again for another half hour, and lowered the temperature to 160 degrees.

Recipe for stewed potatoes with meat in a cauldron

The meat releases juice, in which it will be stewed in the future, and as a result it turns out not greasy and very juicy.

Potatoes with meat in a cauldron - 8 recipes for cooking on the stove, over the fire and in the oven

Potatoes with meat in a cauldron are equally wonderful on the stove or on an open fire. It seems that there is no longer a dish that could easily replace the first or second and be loved by children and adults. Even ladies who are passionate about counting calories will never refuse a plate of rich potatoes. At least in nature. It is worth writing down several popular recipes for this hearty dish.

The right recipe on the stove

In a cauldron on the stove, potatoes and meat come out delicious. The whole secret is in the cauldron: its thick walls retain heat perfectly, simmer, no worse than in a stove. It is not for nothing that smoke, pilaf, khashlama and other Asian dishes are prepared exclusively in this vessel.

It is better to use boneless meat - pork or veal.

For cooking we will need:

  • a hefty piece of boneless pork (preferably ham);
  • 1.5 kg of potatoes;
  • large onion;
  • a little sunflower oil;
  • salt, spices to taste;
  • big carrot.

You can also add bay leaf. But the seasoning gives a characteristic bitterness, so this is not an essential component. Now let's start cooking.

If you want the dish to be reminiscent of the first one, to turn out “with a yushka”, add a little water to the cauldron.

Cooking steps:

  1. Heat a cauldron on the stove and pour oil into it.
  2. Fry pieces of meat, cut into large pieces (like shish kebab).
  3. Add onions, carrots, cut into cubes.
  4. Place potatoes cut into slices.
  5. Mix. Pepper and salt.

Meat and vegetables should give juice, and then stew in it until soft, that is, ready. To do this, reduce the heat and simmer all the ingredients of the roast. Anyone who likes a fragrant crust at the bottom can turn the heat up higher at the very end of cooking and kind of fry the dish.

All that remains is to serve everything, placing it on a large flat dish or placing it on plates. It would be correct to supplement everything with fresh vegetables, herbs, and any tasty sauce.

With added mushrooms

With meat and mushrooms, potatoes turn out even more flavorful and certainly more satisfying. You don't have to buy mushrooms. Frozen honey mushrooms and salted milk mushrooms are also suitable. We recommend soaking the latter slightly in water to remove excess salt. And you most likely won’t need to add additional salt to the potatoes.

For cooking we need:

  • a large piece of boneless pork or beef (ham or pulp);
  • 1.5 kg of potatoes;
  • large onion;
  • a little sunflower oil;
  • spices to taste;
  • large carrot;
  • mushrooms – 400 g;
  • a large bunch of greenery.

How to cook in the oven

You can stew potatoes in the oven directly in the cauldron. The result will be a juicy, slightly baked, and at the same time stewed dish. Braising in the oven imparts a special flavor that is difficult to achieve on the stove. We buy a juicy piece of fresh meat and start cooking!

Not all cauldrons come with a lid: if necessary, a piece of thick foil will fill its role.

What we will need:

  • a large piece of veal or lamb without bone;
  • 1.5 kg of potatoes;
  • one onion;
  • sunflower oil – 100 ml;
  • spices, salt;
  • glass of water;
  • carrot;
  • a large bunch of greenery.

How to prepare:

  1. Cut potatoes, meat, onions, carrots into large pieces.
  2. On the stove, heat the oil in a cauldron and lightly fry all the ingredients.
  3. Fill with water, add some salt, and place in an oven preheated to 220 degrees.
  4. Leave for about 60 minutes.
  5. If you feel that the potatoes are running away, reduce the temperature to 180 degrees.
  6. At the end, be sure to add herbs and a little crushed garlic.

Place on deep ceramic plates and eat, savoring it! Believe it or not, it’s very tasty to top such potatoes with sour cream or any creamy sauce, only homemade.

Required components:

  • pork – ham or neck – 1 kg;
  • potatoes – 2 kg;
  • 500 ml water;
  • salt, pepper to taste;
  • 70 ml vegetable oil.

Cooking steps:

  2. While the wood is burning, cut the meat into cubes.
  3. Fry the potatoes and meat together at the bottom of the cauldron.
  4. If you have onions, add them too, but if you don’t, it doesn’t matter. We'll make do with what we have.
  5. Turn on the heat and simmer until done, stirring occasionally.
  6. Women are not very good at understanding what the right fire should be for cooking. Let's call the men for help: the fire under the cauldron should not burn too hot.

Cooking in Uzbek

Potatoes are the second bread not only in Russia. In Uzbekistan, they also very often prepare stewed potatoes and stew them with meat in a cauldron.

There, in general, a cauldron is a universal utensil, and they love it for its large volume and thick walls: the food turns out to be completely special.

The highlight of Uzbek-style potatoes, of course, is a special set of spices and one more nuance: first the potatoes are fried with onions, and only then they are stewed.

In Asia they use a special onion - it is sweetish and not at all pungent; that’s what it’s called: Uzbek onion; Here you can find it at vegetable markets where residents of sunny Asia sell it.

What we need:

  • 2 kg potatoes,
  • 2 large onions;
  • a large piece of lamb;
  • 500 ml water;
  • 100 ml vegetable oil;
  • cumin seeds, a pinch of red pepper;
  • salt to taste.

Additionally, we will prepare a large green radish, a large carrot for the salad and a red onion for the salad: Uzbeks adore this salad and always eat it with pilaf, potatoes, smoke and other national dishes.

The step-by-step instructions look like this:

  1. Cut potatoes and meat into large cubes.
  2. Chop the onion into half rings.
  3. Heat the oil in a cauldron and fry the onion until golden brown.
  4. Add potatoes, meat, cumin, pepper, salt and fry everything together again.
  5. Add water and simmer until the lamb fibers become soft.

While the meat is stewing, make the salad. To do this, cut the radishes and carrots on a thin long grater (vegetable peeler), chop the onion into half rings, add salt and lightly knead everything so that the juice is released.

At the end, sprinkle with vinegar, vegetable oil, and you can sprinkle with pepper.

Don't forget to serve the meat with a large bunch of greens! In Asia they simply adore her! All that remains is to wish each other “ekimli ishtakha” - this is how “bon appetit” sounds in Uzbek.

In tomato sauce

With the addition of tomato, you get an interesting spicy version, reminiscent of basics, but without pickles (although you can always add them). In season, use ripe tomatoes, and in winter, a good quality paste will do.

What do we need:

  • 1 kg potatoes,
  • 1 onion;
  • piece of lean pork – 500-600 g;
  • 100 ml water;
  • 2 tbsp. l tomato paste;
  • spices, salt to taste;
  • vegetable oil for frying.

How we will cook:

  1. Cut the potatoes into cubes and prepare pieces of pork of the same size.
  2. Cut the onion into large cubes.
  3. Heat the cauldron on the stove, pour a little oil into it and fry the onions, meat, and potatoes.
  4. Dissolve tomato paste in water.
  5. Let's pour it over the meat.
  6. Let's simmer everything until ready.

Sprinkle the finished potatoes with parsley or any other herbs. And we eat it with fresh Borodino bread and any vegetable salad or pickled cucumbers for a bite.

It’s incredibly healthy to eat potatoes with herring and sprat: we’ll put it on black bread and eat it as a bite.
