Lean meat is a thick piece of meat from the shoulder of a beef. This inexpensive meat with a rich and delicious flavor makes it a great traditional main dish for a large home meal. To make the meat tender and easy to pull, cook slowly to soften the meat and become succulent. Here is how to cook lean shoulder meat.

• Preparation time: 30-45 minutes
• Processing time: 3-4 hours
• Total time: 4-5 hours

Resources

• 90-20 g of lean shoulder meat
• 2 tablespoons of cooking oil
• Salt and pepper to season
• 2 onions, peeled and chopped
• 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
• 5 garlic cloves, peeled
• 1/2 cup red wine (optional)

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Gold fry the lean shoulder meat and vegetables

1. 

   
   
   Heat oil in a cast iron pot or frying pan over medium heat.

2. 

   Wash the lean shoulder piece and pat dry with a paper towel.

3. 

   
   
   Sprinkle salt and pepper on the lean shoulder meat.

4. 

   Place the lean shoulder meat in the hot oil. Fry one side of the meat until it browns, then turn it over. Continue frying until the other side turns brown as well. This helps to coat the meat to retain moisture inside and add flavor.

5. 

   
   
   Pick up the lean shoulder meat on a plate.

6. 

   Put the vegetables in a cast iron pot. Put the onion and carrot in the pot. Stir until the onions are transparent. Add garlic and stir for a few minutes. advertisement

Method 2 of 3: Lean meat processing

1. 

   Preheat oven to 110 degrees Celsius.

2. 

   Place lean shoulder meat on top of vegetables. Turn off the iron pot and then put the lean meat back into the pot, above the vegetables.
   • If you don't have a cast iron pot, you can place the vegetables and lean meat in a deep frying pan about 7.5 cm deep. For the best food, use the stainless steel pan, although the non-stick frying pan is also effective.
   • Other ingredients such as potatoes and herbs can be added to the pot / pan containing the meat and vegetables. Add the herbs and arrange around the lean shoulder meat. A whole small potato or large potato can be cut into 4 parts.

3. 

   Pour wine on lean shoulder pads and vegetables. If you don't want to use wine, you can use broth, broth, juice, vinegar or a mixture of liquids.

4. 

   Cover the pan or cover with foil and then put the pan in the oven. The lid or foil helps the meat retain moisture during processing.

5. 

   Bake the lean shoulder meat for 3-4 hours or until tender, if stabbed with a fork. Use a meat thermometer to determine if the meat is cooked. The temperature inside the meat should be at least 63 degrees Celsius.

6. 

   Cover and let the meat stand for about 30 minutes before cutting. This allows the gravy to distribute evenly throughout the meat, resulting in a succulent piece of meat. Serve with meat with potatoes and vegetables. advertisement

Method 3 of 3: Use a slow cooker

1. 

   Place lean meat in a slow cooker.

2. 

   Add other ingredients. Place vegetables, potatoes, and herbs around the meat. Use whole small potatoes (such as red potatoes) or large potatoes, cut into 4. Slice or chop vegetables, such as onions, celery and carrots, into bite-sized pieces.

3. 

   Fill the pot with wine and water. You need enough liquid to cover the meat and vegetables. In addition to wine, you can add water, broth, broth, juice, vinegar or other liquid mixture.

4. 

   Cover and cook slowly for about 8 hours. The meat is cooked when tender enough if stabbed by a fork or the inner temperature of the meat reaches 63 degrees Celsius.

5. 

   Finish. advertisement
