Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make buckwheat with pork in a frying pan? To do this, you need to prepare the necessary ingredients. You can use any parts of pork — you can take the pulp or brisket with a small amount of lard.

Step 2

Step 2
For cooking, take a deep frying pan with a wide bottom. Heat it until hot and pour in a little vegetable oil. Cut the pork into pieces of approximately the same size. Fry the sliced meat in hot oil on all sides until lightly golden brown. Donʼt forget to stir the meat so it doesnʼt burn.

Step 3

Step 3
While the meat is roasting, prepare the vegetables. Peel the onions and carrots and rinse them in running water to remove any dirt. Cut the onion into half rings or a little smaller. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater.

Then place the washed buckwheat in the frying pan and add twice as much hot water as buckwheat. To prevent buckwheat from boiling, cook it in a ratio of 1/2 with water. Add a little salt and spices to taste. Mix everything and bring to a boil. Cover the pan with a lid and cook the buckwheat over low heat for 25-35 minutes.

Step 7

During cooking, buckwheat will absorb all the water. Monitor the water level and make sure that the buckwheat does not start to burn. Once the water has evaporated, remove the pan from the heat. Leave the buckwheat covered to steep a little.
