For potatoes, porridge and pasta: tender stewed meat that just melts in your mouth
To make your meal hearty, you can add juicy stewed meat to boiled pasta, potatoes or buckwheat. Veal is the best choice for this dish. It is soft, has enough fat, and at the same time not too heavy.
The idea of cooking tender stewed meat for lunch is published on the Instagram page of food blogger Iryna with the nickname healthy_recipes_ira. Be sure to add seasonal young vegetables.
