I am ready to eat good meat in almost unlimited quantities. And when I am offered something exclusively vegetable, I have no desire to eat this something. But with pork it’s a different matter. I often thank the higher mind for the fact that I was born into a people who are not forbidden to eat this meat by any national traditions. Because it is very, very tasty. And today I will tell you about how to cook vegetable stew in a cauldron. In general, to be honest, I don’t know what people invented this dish, but I wish these people prosperity and all the best.

List of products for stew recipe:
1) Fresh pork – 0.5 – 0.7 kg.
2) Potatoes. Five pieces is enough.
3) A couple of medium-sized carrots.
5) Five medium onions.
6) Half a head of cabbage.
7) Head of garlic.
A tablespoon of tomato paste. You can simply take about three fresh tomatoes for the same purpose.
9) Zira, herbs, salt and pepper - to your taste.
10 Sunflower oil.

How to cook vegetable stew with meat in a cauldron:
1) Make a fire and heat the cauldron. In the meantime, we select potatoes, approximately the size of a regular egg, and peel them. Cut all larger potatoes into pieces. As soon as we see that the cauldron is well heated, pour sunflower oil into it.
2) Cut the meat. We will need pieces ranging in size from 3 to 5 cm. We remove films and fat from them.
3) As soon as the oil begins to boil, throw in the cuttings. You can even throw the bones in there too. Plus a few meat pieces for taste.
4) Now we take out the fried potatoes and immerse the potatoes in their place. Turn it over and add a little salt before it’s ready. When the potatoes are ready, pull them out and put them in a closed bowl to wait in the wings. Then put the meat in the cauldron and fry on all sides.
5) Add the onion, which must first be cut into half rings.
6) Chop the carrots into cubes, half a centimeter thick.
7) It takes approximately 5 minutes for the carrots to become soft enough in the cauldron.
We cut the cabbage into squares or strips and throw it into the cauldron. Do not cover the lid and wait for ten minutes.
9) Add a glass of water and cover with a lid.
10) Simmer for 15 minutes, then add peeled tomatoes or tomato.
11) Add potatoes and mix a little. After this, you can cover the cauldron again and keep it on low heat for about five minutes.

I tried it a long time ago stew in a cauldron over a fire, and it was wonderful. The recipe that I described was prepared right near the house, on a special metal stand.

The final touch is to cut the garlic and herbs, and then add them along with the cumin to our stew. This completes the cooking process.

Cooking tips

• If you have potatoes with crumbly pulp, you do not need to boil them first.
• Vegetable stew according to this recipe can also be prepared in a slow cooker. Extinguishing time is 35-40 minutes.

As a rule, vegetable stew is considered healthy and satisfying. This is a universal dish that can be served either alone or together with meat, mushrooms - with any other dish. It is prepared from absolutely different vegetables and in any way, the main thing is to keep the vegetables in full shape - hard and not like caviar.

Recipes:

Recently, the appetite of my “men” has increased greatly and has become more demanding of food. They are not satisfied with simple potatoes, vinaigrette and my other research with vegetables.

With all this, I really want my boys to get the most useful substances in the fall. Recipes for vegetable stews written by my grandmother helped me find a way out. The children are simply delighted with these stews and have stopped being picky. I advise you to try these dishes too.

The family's diet was the first to include a dish cooked according to a classic recipe. This cooking takes 40–45 minutes.

I have used so many products for my family.

What you may need for vegetable stew:

• large potatoes – 4 pcs.;
• white cabbage – 1/2 head;
• tomatoes – 4 pcs.;
• young zucchini – 2 pcs.;
• carrots – 1 pc.;
• onions – 2 onions;
• olive oil;
• salt;
• garlic – 1 clove;
• green parsley and basil;
• ground black pepper.

How to cook vegetable stew with zucchini, cabbage and potatoes according to a simple recipe?

To ensure that the dish was stewed well and not burnt, I used a cast-iron frying pan with a retracted bottom and high sides.

I washed the vegetables thoroughly. I divided half the head of cabbage into 6 parts and placed it on the bottom of the frying pan. If you cut it thinly, it will boil over and will not be felt in the finished stew. Peeled the potatoes and cut them into slices 1.5 cm by 2 cm and poured them into the cabbage.

I take small, recently grown zucchini, so I don’t peel them, but immediately cut them into cubes slightly smaller than potatoes. If you have large fruits, the skin and the middle should be removed, leaving only the pulp. Add the chopped slices to the rest of the ingredients. Attention! Do not mix under any circumstances!

I poured olive oil on top of everything (it can be replaced with vegetable oil), closed it with a glass lid and set it to simmer for 5-7 minutes on moderate gas.

I chopped the onion, just like I grated the carrots, in advance. But I cut the tomatoes into square slices while the base was stewing. In a small frying pan, I fried the onions and carrots for 4 minutes, and then added the tomatoes and simmered a little more.

With the resulting frying, I poured over the vegetables that had already released their juice in a large frying pan. If the vegetables have released little juice, add a little more hot water. Add salt and pepper on top. Covered it again with a lid and left it on low heat for 15 minutes. I got a bright dish with a delicate taste.

Before serving, sprinkle the dish with crushed garlic and sprinkle with herbs. When laying out the stew, I try to scoop it up from the very bottom, so all the ingredients end up on the plate.

I try to prepare food for my family from products grown at home, but I have to buy eggplants at the market.

My men don’t really like this vegetable, but it contains many useful microelements, and I decided to add it to the stew that my men are already familiar with along with cauliflower. The roast turned out very rich and flavorful. Even the neighbor came crawling in response to the smells.

Required ingredients:

• small eggplants – 2 pcs.;
• cauliflower – 1 head;
• potatoes – 5-7 pcs.;
• onions - 1 onion;
• small zucchini – 2 pcs.;
• carrot;
• vegetable oil;
• salt;
• spices;
• fresh parsley.

Step-by-step recipe:

1. First of all, I wash the vegetables and let them dry. Then I cut the eggplants into small slices and pour them into a bowl. Then I salt the pieces and leave them for half an hour. This procedure allows you to remove the bitterness present in the vegetable.
2. I chop the onion and carrot into small cubes. Then I sauté in oil until half cooked. I pour the resulting roast onto the bottom of the pan.
3. Potatoes and zucchini, like other ingredients except cauliflower, are cut into small squares and fried until golden brown. I pour it into the next layer into the pan.
4. I divide the head of cabbage into small florets, add a little salt, and fry for 8 minutes. Next, I pour it in the third step on top of the potatoes.
5. It’s time to fry the eggplants and zucchini separately. They have to stay on the fire for just a little while just to set.
6. I set the pan on low heat. I pour in 3 cups of hot water, add a little table salt, pepper and spices. I leave it to simmer for half an hour.

Serve the prepared vegetable stew hot. Before serving, I decorate the plates with herbs.

Men's wisdom says: “You won’t be full with vegetables alone,” and I completely agree with this. Therefore, I cook not only in vegetarian versions, but also with meat. We will cook with beef meat.

Products needed to prepare a hearty dinner:

• Potatoes – 1 tuber;
• small zucchini;
• carrots - medium;
• water – half a glass;
• tomato paste - jar;
• meat – 0.5 kg;
• dried garlic;
• small onion;
• vegetable oil;
• sweet pepper – 1 pc.;
• green peas – 50 g;
• salt, seasoning and pepper.

Very fast cooking:

I cut the zucchini, small in size, into slices. I grated the carrots on a coarse grater and chopped the onion and pepper. I peeled and cut the potatoes randomly (I take a large fruit).

Then I washed the turkey fillet. I cut it into cubes slightly larger in size than the vegetables. I pour it into a frying pan over heated sunflower oil and fry it.

I add chopped zucchini to the meat. Covering it with a lid, let it simmer for 5-7 minutes. While the base is stewing, I prepare a mixture of water and tomato paste. Sometimes I replace it with 750 ml of seedless tomato juice. I add salt and spices to it and sauté.

When the zucchini has stewed a little, I pour them and the remaining preparations into the slow cooker. Pour all this over the tomato mixture and stir. I select the “Extinguishing” mode and set the time for half an hour. If the unit has a pressure cooker function, then the time should be reduced to 20 minutes.

Green peas, I use canned ones, are added to the finished dish immediately before serving. The vegetable stew turns out so flavorful and satisfying that it’s impossible to tear yourself away from it!

I tried several recipes to prepare this chicken dish in the oven, but settled on the method using a baking sleeve. It allows you to cook vegetables and meat in their own juice while maximizing the aroma of ingredients and spices.

List of products:

• potatoes – 4 pcs;
• zucchini;
• carrot;
• onion - bulb;
• chicken drumsticks – 4 pcs.;
• salt, pepper, spices.

Cooking process:

When preparing vegetables for this dish, it is preferable to choose medium-sized fruits.

First, I thoroughly washed the chicken legs (by the way, drumsticks can be replaced with 2 hams) and vegetables. While the meat is drying, I cut the potatoes and zucchini into large slices of any shape. Depending on their size, I cut carrots, like onions, into thin rings, or cut them in half, and then slice them thinly.

I salt and pepper all the vegetables evenly and add spices (I often use basil and cardamom, although a mixture of peppers is perfect). I mix them and then put everything, including the drumsticks, in the sleeve. I arrange the meat so that there is a lot of chopped vegetables around them. I tie the ends of the sleeves and put them in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 1.5 hours.

Vegetable stew with chicken looks very appetizing! The taste turns out so rich that you will lick not only your fingers, but also your plates!

I was prompted to cook something tasty and unusual by finding minced pork in the freezer. I spotted a simple method for preparing vegetable stew with meat in a culinary publication and modified it a little.

To prepare it you needed:

• minced pork – 400 g;
• 4 zucchini;
• three potatoes;
• tomatoes – 4 pcs.;
• onions - one onion;
• green parsley (dill) – a bunch;
• salt;
• vegetable oil;
• pepper.

Cooking method:

First of all, I defrosted the minced meat. Next, I peeled the onion and cut it into small cubes.

I placed a frying pan with sunflower oil on the stove and let it heat up well. Then she poured the onion into it to sauté, and a moment later added the minced meat. Fry the ingredients for another 5 minutes and set aside from the heat.

It's time to tinker with the vegetables. I peeled the eggplants and got rid of the seeds, spreading them in half. I also peeled the potatoes. I chopped the vegetables into squares. Tomatoes, cut into halves, removing the dense stem, dissolved into strips. I also finely chopped the greens.

I placed the prepared ingredients, adding salt, pepper and mixing thoroughly, into a heat-resistant pan. And put it in the oven for an hour. Advice! If the oven is baking too much from the bottom, add a little water to the pan.

Before finishing cooking, I add the herbs and stir the stew again. The consistency of the dish resembles liquid stewed potatoes, so I serve it in bowls.

Delighting my family with a vegetable stew made from zucchini and eggplant in the middle of winter is quite simple for me. In the fall I can it.

For this preparation we will need the following products:

• eggplants (small) – half a kilo;
• red sweet pepper - half a kilo,
• zucchini - half a kilo;
• carrots – half a kilo;
• parsley – 1 bunch;
• tomatoes – 1 kg;
• garlic – 1 medium head;
• vinegar – 75 ml;
• refined sunflower oil – 150 ml;
• sugar – 150 g;
• salt – 1.5 tbsp. heaped salt;
• allspice – 4 pcs.;
• bay leaf.

Step-by-step cooking process:

The first step is processing and chopping the vegetables. I remove the tails and tips of zucchini and eggplants. If the skins are damaged or too dense, I remove them too. Then I separate them into 4 parts and cut them into slices 1 cm wide.

I clean the sweet peppers from seeds, cut them in half and chop them into thin strips. I grate the peeled carrots on a coarse grater and chop the greens. I place all the preparations in the container in which I will cook.

The second stage is preparing the filling. I pass peeled tomatoes through a meat grinder. I add grated garlic, refined oil, salt, spices, sugar and vinegar to the resulting juice. Mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mass is obtained.

The final stages are stewing and preserving the stew. Pour the sauce into a saucepan with the vegetable base and place over medium heat until it boils. After this, reduce the gas to a minimum and simmer until done.

While the vegetables are cooking, I wash and sterilize 5 1.5 liter glass jars. I put the finished product in a container and roll it up. When the jars have cooled under the old jacket, I send them to the cellar.

Another name for this dish is Ratatouille.

1. Stewed cabbage: 10 delicious classic recipes

I named this recipe that way because I cooked it in such a vessel for the first time when I was vacationing with my family in a tent camp. The household liked the dish so much that I later repeated it more than once at home.

Grocery list:

• eggplants – 2 pcs.;
• thick-walled sweet pepper – 2 pieces;
• tomatoes – 8 pieces;
• zucchini (preferably young) – 2 pcs.;
• potatoes - 4 fruits;
• garlic – 1 medium head;
• onions – 2 onions;
• carrot;
• Parsley, basil and dill;
• vegetable oil – 4 tbsp. l.;
• ground mixture of “5 peppers”;
• salt;
• hot capsicum.

Cooking process:

I started cooking by cutting eggplant into large pieces. In an effort to remove the bitterness inherent in the fruit, I placed the pieces in cold salted water for 15–20 minutes.

While the blue eggplants were soaking, I peeled and cut into cubes the potatoes and zucchini. I also cut the onion into half rings. Next, I drained the water from the eggplants. I had sweet peppers in two colors, which made the appearance of the dish very bright. I cut it into large squares.

Then, by scalding the tomatoes with hot water, I easily got rid of the unnecessary skin. Peeled carrots, like other vegetables, were cut into square pieces. Finely chopped two cloves of garlic.

In vegetable oil heated in a cauldron, I first fried the onions, then threw in the potatoes, not forgetting to add salt and pepper, and let them fry together for a while.

When the pieces take on a golden hue, add chopped pepper, and after another 5 minutes add eggplant.

Attention! Don’t miss the moment when the little blue ones are slightly fried, because then you need to put out the fire and continue to simmer only until it’s hot.

Then I pour water into the cauldron so that it reaches half of the folded products. I cover it with a lid and cook until the potato pieces are soft. While I'm waiting, I chop the remaining garlic and chop the herbs.

After checking readiness, add tomatoes, chopped herbs and zucchini, and chopped garlic. I add spices and salt. I also add a pod of hot pepper and stir the contents of the cauldron. The dish cooks for another 8 minutes

For me, these ten recipes have become the most popular. The children fell in love with them and can no longer imagine a day off without such a delicacy. I really hope that you will appreciate these aromatic vegetable stews!

Ragu (from the French ragoûter - “to excite the appetite”) is one of the most popular and widespread dishes, which is prepared on the basis of small pieces of meat, poultry, fish, vegetables or mushrooms first fried and then stewed over low heat, often in a thick sauce. In Russian usage, this word was borrowed to designate a foreign dish, but it quickly took hold here and began to designate almost all hot (cold) snacks prepared from a combination of various vegetables stewed over a fire.

Moreover, stew is a fairly universal dish that can differ not only in its ingredients, but also in the method of preparation. So, this time let's try to cook a tasty, healthy and very aromatic vegetable stew in a cauldron!

To prepare vegetable stew in a cauldron, you will need:

cauliflower – 0.5 kg
zucchini – 0.5 kg
sweet pepper – 350 g
tomatoes – 300 g
onion – 150 g
carrots – 150 g
greens - to taste
salt, pepper - to taste
vegetable oil

How to cook vegetable stew in a cauldron:

1. Before starting cooking, it is immediately worth noting that this dish can be safely supplemented with other favorite vegetables to taste (for example, white cabbage, potatoes or eggplants, etc.). First we need to prepare all the vegetables. To do this, peel the onions and carrots, rinse them thoroughly under running water, then cut the onions into small cubes and grate the carrots (medium or large).
2. Next, wash and separate the cauliflower into individual inflorescences (then chop it into smaller pieces). We wash the zucchini and sweet bell pepper, then peel the zucchini and cut it into small pieces (cubes or cubes), and remove the seeds and core from the pepper and cut it into medium strips. Wash and chop the tomatoes in the same way.
3. Now that all the vegetables are prepared, put a cauldron on the fire and heat a small amount of vegetable (or olive) oil in it. As soon as the oil is heated, first add the onion to the cauldron (fry it until translucent), then the carrot (mix it with the onion and fry for about 3-5 minutes), then add the zucchini. Fry the vegetables for another 5-7 minutes. In this case, the fire should be no more than medium. Then we add cabbage to the rest of the vegetables.
4. After this, add the sweet bell pepper, and when it is thoroughly cooked (becomes soft), add the tomatoes to the cauldron. Now the stew needs to be salted and pepper to taste, then mixed thoroughly and covered with a lid. Simmer the vegetables until cooked (literally another 3-5 minutes), then remove the cauldron from the heat and let the stew cook for another 5-10 minutes.
Now all we have to do is add the greens. This can be done either a few minutes before the dish is ready, pouring the greens directly into the cauldron, or sprinkle it on the already prepared stew, laid out in portions on plates. In any case, before doing this, the greens must be thoroughly washed, dried and very finely chopped with a knife.

And when preparing stew, you should pay attention to the following points:

* each vegetable requires a certain (and different) time for cooking, so first you need to put hard vegetables (potatoes, carrots, etc.) in the cauldron, and at the very end soft ones (tomatoes, herbs, etc.)
* meat is also often added to vegetable stews (usually veal or beef). In this case, it is better to supplement the dish with various spices (for example, you can use a mixture of peppers, thyme, tarragon, basil, sage, etc.). However, it is better not to leave such spiced options for the next day (they taste much better fresh).
* to make your stew aromatic, you can add a few chopped garlic cloves at the very end of cooking. In addition, it goes well not only with vegetables, but also with meat.
