Proteins are organic substances, complex in structure and consisting of amino acids. The body can form all basic amino acids itself, and also receives many from food. Thus, consuming protein in the right amount is vital for a person to maintain mental performance, maintain muscle strength and build new muscle tissue. Protein is a complex organic structure, and therefore it must be obtained together with other elements, otherwise the body will not be able to digest it properly.

Miscellaneous

Classic recipe

Simply putting meat in boiling water and keeping it in it for the required time will not cook tasty beef.

Even following the strictest calorie diets does not mean that you need to eat something completely tasteless. When boiling, vegetables, aromatic roots, and a limited amount of salt are added to the broth. If the diet is designed to reduce calories and is not prescribed for the purpose of treating diseases of the digestive system, moderate use of spices is acceptable.

Composition of ingredients

What to cook from:

• fresh beef shoulder or hind leg - 1 kg;
• a couple of sweet carrots;
• large parsley root;
• 1/2 small bell pepper;
• a handful of mixed greens - parsley, basil, dill;
• 3 tsp. salt;
• bay leaf;
• 150 g small onions;
• 2-3 peppercorns.

Step-by-step cooking process

How to cook:

1. The meat should be boiled in a whole, large piece, without cutting. A pot or saucepan with a massive base is placed on rapid heating, and 3 liters of clean water are heated to a boil.
2. The beef is stripped of films, washed and dipped in boiling water, stirred briefly, preventing the flesh from sticking to the bottom or walls. Remove the skins from the onions, scrape and rinse the carrots.
3. After removing the foam from the surface of the re-boiled broth, lower the whole vegetables into it. Peel the root and select the seeds from half the pepper, place them in a saucepan, adjust the heat to a barely noticeable boil.
4. Cover loosely with a lid and make sure that the boiling has increased slightly, cook the beef for 2 hours. Add spices, herbs and salt to the broth, stir, return the lid to its previous position.
5. After 30 min. the finished beef is briefly removed from the pan, the broth is quickly filtered, using a colander with a piece of gauze lined with it. The meat is returned to the broth and the heating is turned off.

6. Leave the boiled beef in the broth for a quarter of an hour, loosely covering the pan. Then the lid is moved more tightly, it is advisable to expose the pan to a draft or move it to a cool room until it cools completely.

What can I add?

Boiled beef, the calorie content of which becomes even lower after heat treatment, does not require a large amount of salt and spices. In addition to the parsley root, you should add a slice of celery to the broth; if diet conditions allow, add 1 more bay leaf.

How to serve a dish

The diet broth is too heavy; it is used in other dishes. The beef is flattened into 1cm-thick slices before the meat has cooled completely. It is important not to let the beef dry out; for this reason, cut off exactly as much meat as is required for the table.

Boiled beef, the caloric content of dishes from which must fit within the diet, is served with coarse bread made from second-grade flour, gray or containing bran. It is worth offering salads from fresh vegetables and mild sauces with boiled meat. Mustard is an ideal addition, but its spiciness should also be moderate.

Pork

How to reduce energy value?

Pork and beef cutlets, the calorie content of which was discussed in the article using different cooking methods, can be made easier to digest.

To do this, you should follow some rules when preparing a dish and consuming it:

• You should not put a lot of spices, especially salt, into the minced meat. Spices increase appetite, and salt retains liquid, which adds additional calories to the finished dish and complicates the digestive process;
• You can also omit bread or breadcrumbs, but in order for the minced meat to hold its shape, it must be dense enough;
• To prepare minced meat, you should take lean pieces of both beef and pork. So the beef will be less fatty in the lower and upper beef thigh, sirloin, and front shoulder blade. Lean parts of pork - polendvitsa and loin;

• The preferred method of preparing cutlets is stewing, steaming, baking. When frying, do not use fat or sunflower oil;
• To reduce calorie content, you can add vegetables to the minced meat - zucchini, pumpkin, cabbage, carrots. With them, the cutlets will turn out not only juicier, but also healthier;
• You should not eat cutlets at night, since such heavy food will not have time to be absorbed, and the resulting calories will be deposited in the form of fat accumulation;
• You should not choose dishes containing starch and fast carbohydrates (pasta, potatoes) as a side dish. Cutlets are best eaten with fresh vegetable salads, vegetable dietary casseroles, and herbs.
