However, the most important thing is that the meat should not have any fatty layers or veins.
Meat preparation
Fresh pork must be cut into slices, the thickness of each of which should not exceed one centimeter. If you want and time, you can also beat them off. It is allowed to safely skip this point if you managed to find a loin of a young pig or tender tenderloin.
Then each piece must be fried on both sides with a small amount of vegetable oil. The fire should be slightly less than average. When the pieces are slightly browned, you can remove them. There is no goal to cook the meat completely - just subject it to a small heat treatment.
