Today in our menu – baked knuckle in the oven with apples. For a good meat dish, just a few ingredients, a simple recipe and a little patience are enough. Baked pork knuckle in the oven with apples.
The taste of pork shank is well complemented by garlic, cumin, sauerkraut, beer or honey marinade and, of course, apples. We will bake the meat in the oven on a vegetable pillow. Moreover, vegetables will take longer to cook than meat.
Pork knuckle cooked in suvida. This is a ready-made semi-finished product that does not need to be baked for 2 hours, as a raw product. It takes 30-40 minutes to bring the meat to taste. It will be juicy, soft and fragrant. Suvid technology, in which products are prepared in a vacuum, has a lot of advantages. Among them, the uniformity of cooking, preserving the benefits and “clean” taste of the product. If desired, you can add hot pepper to the dish, and replace the beer completely or partially with аpple cider.
