Suckling pig in the oven - New Year's recipe

The highlight of the program will be a piglet cooked in the oven with your own hands. By preparing it you will surprise your guests with your culinary skills. A very tender, soft and tasty pig will delight you and your loved ones. Moreover, cooking a whole pig in the oven is not at all difficult.

Ingredients:

• Piglet
• Dry white wine - 2 glasses
• Soy sauce - 1 cup
• Carnation
• Star anise
• Allspice
• Pepper
• Paprika
• Honey - 1 tbsp.

For filling:

• Buckwheat
• Mushrooms
• Butter
• Olive oil

For decoration:

• Potato
• Rosemary
• Thyme
• Pitted olives

Preparation:

Marinating suckling pig

1. First of all, you need to marinate the pig. We place it in a container of a suitable size. Fill with water so that the pig is completely immersed in water. Pour 2 glasses of wine, 1 glass of soy sauce, star anise, a few cloves and add a handful of allspice. Leave to marinate in a cool, dark place for 1.5 days.
   
2. After the required amount of time, remove and dry the piglet inside and out using paper napkins or a towel.
3. Pour olive oil onto the carcass. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika. Paprika will give a very beautiful color to the future dish.
   Rub the pig thoroughly inside and out so that no part remains untouched.
   

   Stuffing for carcass

4. Now let's prepare the filling. Boil the buckwheat until half cooked. It will reach the end inside the carcass in the oven.
5. While the buckwheat is cooking, let's take care of the onions and mushrooms. Chop one large onion and mushrooms. You can use any mushrooms you like. In this case, these are champignons.
   
6. In a frying pan, fry the onion in butter until golden brown. Add mushrooms and cook until done. You don’t have to skimp on the oil, as the champignons absorb it well.
   
7. Mix the prepared mushrooms with onions with buckwheat.
   
8. Now you need to stuff the pig with the resulting filling. Please note that you should not completely compact the carcass with the filling, since the buckwheat will increase in volume when it is ready. And thus it may simply reveal your piglet.
   
9. Next comes the moment of sewing up the pig with the filling. The easiest way to do this is to use skewers. We pierce the carcass with them at a distance of about 3-4 cm from each other. We break off the excess ends. Then, using a rope, we make a kind of seam. We draw it crosswise around each skewer. At the very end we tie the ends of the rope.
   

   How to bake a pig in the oven

10. Place the carcass on a baking sheet and place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 30 minutes.
    
11. Don't forget to wrap the pig's ears and snout with foil, otherwise they will burn and ruin the whole look of the dish. If you plan to insert something into the pig's mouth after cooking, then you must first insert a ball of foil into his mouth, otherwise it will be very difficult to do this after baking.
    
12. After half an hour, take out the carcass and coat it very thoroughly with the sauce with a brush. The sauce is prepared like this: mix 1 tablespoon of honey with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce until smooth. It is the sauce that will give the pig a beautiful golden crust. Place back in the oven for about 1 hour.
13. While the pig is cooking, we need to prepare a side dish for it. We will use potatoes. Peel the potatoes and fry in butter until half cooked to form a golden crust. While frying, salt the potatoes and add rosemary.
    
14. When the pig has been in the oven for another half hour, we take it out and place our half-finished potatoes next to it. Grease with sauce again and put in the oven for another half an hour.
    
15. Take out the finished dish and decorate with herbs and tomatoes. Instead of eyes we insert olives. I won’t describe how to do this. I think you'll figure it out. You can put a lemon, an apple or a tangerine (or anything) into your mouth.

The end result is such a beautiful, tasty dish for the holiday. In my opinion, such a suckling pig with potatoes will look very beautiful on the New Year's table.

Couples who have lived together for more than one year, and girlfriends who have decided to step away from the whole world and devote New Year's Eve to watching programs and quiet conversation, raise their glasses to the chiming clock.

Elderly people who are forced to celebrate the holiday alone also gather around the same table.

We offer a unique menu that is suitable for a romantic dinner or for celebrating the New Year with a friend or soulmate.

A quick and tasty dish that is ideal for New Year's celebrations.

Take lean portions of meat and bake in the oven with spices. Be sure to place a pineapple slice on each piece and sprinkle grated cheese on top.

Tender rice with a mushroom aroma perfectly complements the meat. The side dish is prepared immediately before serving.

Mushrooms can be used both wild and ordinary champignons.

A light appetizer of torn lettuce leaves, which ideally complements grainy salted cottage cheese and king prawns. If desired, you can add cherry tomatoes to the appetizer.

A snack in which you can use ready-made meat products or prepared yourself.

Make chicken pasta, pork boiled pork, lard loaded with spices, and boil beef tongue.

Thanks to just one dish, a woman can show herself as a skilled housewife.

There is no desire or time to tinker with handmade delights; lay out store-bought sausages and ham.

Buy ready-made snack tartlets or bake your own from puff pastry. Fill the molds with red caviar and garnish with parsley sprigs.

The dessert, which alternates layers of chocolate and strawberry-sour cream, is ideal for a romantic dinner or for treating a friend.

In winter, you can safely use frozen strawberries for cooking.

The sweet snack will sparkle with new colors if the apples are stuffed with cottage cheese, raisins and nuts.

When serving, add ice cream slices and top with vanilla sauce.

Make an invigorating drink with red wine and citrus fruits. Don't forget to add a little sugar and mint leaves to the cocktail.

Menu for the New Year of the Pig for a company of 8-10 people

Feeding a large company is a responsible and difficult task.

The menu will have to include at least 8 standard dishes from the family version, doubling their volume. Or expand the menu and prepare several options for hot dishes, appetizers and salads.

It will be difficult for one housewife to cope with the preparation of such a banquet. Therefore, you will have to involve your relatives and friends for help.

Or, as an option, distribute the dishes from the list among all participants, and prepare only hot dishes for the holiday hosts.

Pork ham baked in the oven is a hearty and tasty dish.

First, we stuff the meat with garlic, coat it with mustard and spices, and send it to the oven in foil or a baking sleeve.

The meat can be served with pieces of potato, which will become an additional side dish.

The second hot dish can be chicken, which we will also bake in the oven.

The highlight of this dish is its unusual method of preparation.

Place the bird on a layer of salt sprinkled on a leaf. Don't worry - the chicken will take as much salt as it needs, and the meat will be tender and juicy.

Choose potatoes of the same size, wash them well and cut them into pieces. After drying the pieces on a towel, sprinkle them generously with rosemary and, after sprinkling with vegetable oil, put them in the oven.

At the end of cooking, do not forget to salt the dish.

Leave the potatoes in the broiler until golden brown.

Classic jellied meat

Such a cold appetizer will always be relevant. In addition, meat frozen in broth is a hearty, tasty appetizer for strong alcoholic drinks.

You can serve the jellied meat with horseradish sauce or mustard dressing.

There are many options for stuffing half boiled eggs.

We offer several options this year.

Stuff eggs with pieces of sausage, corn and garnish with slices of fresh cucumber. Or chicken liver pate with boiled yolk.

Grated processed cheese with garlic and yolk is also a great recipe. Go ahead and make herring mass with beets.

Lavash roll and cod liver

Lavash rolls look original and festive. It's also a delicious snack.

Spread salted grainy cottage cheese and mashed cod liver onto a sheet of lavash, and place torn lettuce leaves on top. All that remains is to roll the pita bread and cut into portions.

Meat, vegetable and cheese slices

For the New Year's table, where a large company will gather, it is better to prepare several options for cutting.

Guests will be able to create their own snack sandwiches from pieces of sausage, ham, tongue, various cheeses, and vegetables.

In fact, this salad is a variation of the classic Olivier. Only instead of the usual boiled sausage we will use smoked chicken meat.

Boil the squid for no more than a minute and cool quickly in cold water. Cut the carcasses into strips and add chopped eggs and canned corn. Z

Season the salad with homemade mayonnaise and garnish with fresh cucumber and parsley.

Classic Mimosa will sparkle with new colors and taste if you replace ordinary canned food with pieces of noble salmon.

The fish can be lightly salted or baked in the oven. Find more Mimosa salad recipes.

A birthday cake for a large company should be delicious and easy to prepare.

The ideal option would be the Smetannik cake.

Using a minimum of ingredients and preparation time, you can create a real confectionery masterpiece.

If you are planning walks in the fresh air or setting off fireworks, sledding on New Year's Eve, tea with spices will become an indispensable drink. It can be prepared with milk, cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom, cloves.

You can take this drink with you in a thermos on a walk or give your guests tea when they come home.

When choosing the right menu, listen to your desires. You should not strictly adhere to all recommendations and advice, or cook strictly according to the proposed menu and recipes. New Year is a holiday of fairy tales, homely, touching and family. Therefore, feel free to prepare according to the list, which takes into account the wishes of each guest. And even if the dishes do not complement each other, everyone will find on the table what they really wanted.
