A distinctive feature of Russian cuisine is that it has a lot of cereal dishes. Some of them are already a thing of the past, but even today often dishes are served that were prepared by the great-grandmothers of modern housewives. One of them is buckwheat with meat. In a slow cooker, the recipe for cooking is almost the same as in a Russian stove. And that means that the same buckwheat porridge will be merchandised to taste .
Most multicookers even have a separate mode for cooking this grits. It is usually called Buckwheat. In rare cases, there may be another name, such as "Krupa". What does it take to get a delicious buckwheat with
meat in a slow cooker? The recipe is very simple. First, prepare the meat. Usually for this dish take a pound of pork tenderloin. The meat should be cut into medium-sized cubes and put in a slow cooker along with a couple of tablespoons of vegetable oil. Now you should prepare the vegetables. Cut onions into half rings, and carrots - into strips and add them to the meat. And only now you can pour buckwheat. It must be sorted out and rinsed. Buckwheat will need 2 multi-glasses. Salt and pepper everything to taste. Add 4 multi-glasses of water (it should only cover all products by itself) and select the automatic mode “Buckwheat” or “Groats”. In about an hour, buckwheat with meat in a slow cooker will be ready.
The recipe, of course, is simple, but, unfortunately, not all models have such an automatic mode. And how to cook porridge in its absence? You can use the "Extinguishing" and "Frying". First you should fry the meat on all sides in sunflower oil for 15 minutes ("Frying" mode). Then add the onion chopped in half rings and fry for another 10 minutes in the same mode. Then pour a glass of washed cereals, salt, spices and pour 3-3.5 glasses of water. And here the "Extinguishing" mode is already needed for 1 hour. Thus, a dish is prepared not only with pork, but also buckwheat with chicken meat.
But, perhaps, it is most convenient to cook it using "Multipovar". Indeed, in this case, you can independently choose the time and temperature of cooking. First, of course, the meat is cooked. It must be cut into small pieces 1 x 1 cm in size. Finely chop the onion and put it together with meat and vegetable oil in a multicooker pan. Mix. Select the cooking temperature - 1200, and the time - 15 minutes. Rinse the buckwheat in the meantime. After the signal, put the groats, salt and pepper. Add water so that it covers all products. Now select the temperature in the same mode of 1000, and the time is 25 minutes. The multicooker itself will do the rest.
