How to cook pork for diet 5

Perhaps meat can be called one of the important food products for humans. It was the first food that our ancestors learned to get and cook. In cooking, it is difficult to imagine products as rich in proteins as meat.

There is hardly anyone who believes in the low calorie content of pork, since this type of meat has always been considered one of the fatty ones. But this statement is only partially true: pork without fat and lard is leaner than young lamb, and not much higher in calories than chicken breast. Why is that?

In any pork carcass there are different types of meat - fattier and leaner. And, accordingly, you can cook different dishes from these parts - barbecue, jellied meat, soups, stews, chops. We have already looked at what parts of pork are called. Thus, less fatty and low-calorie cuts include tenderloin and brisket - they can be stewed, baked, boiled, steamed, or made into kebabs over coals and a fire. In second place in terms of low calorie content is the back ham, followed by carbonate - in it the layer of fat can already reach half a centimeter. Well, the most high-calorie parts of a pork carcass are the brisket, shank and neck.

Of course, for kebabs and cooking over coals, it is better to choose fattier parts, since they are the ones that turn out juicy and not dry. Well, for dietary nutrition, boiling and baking, tenderloin or back ham (without lard) is still suitable.

In order for meat dishes to really bring benefits, it is better to eat them in the first half of the day - this is the time when proteins are actively absorbed and the body’s cells are renewed.

Pork is one of the richest sources of proteins and amino acids. And, as you know, protein food is one of the important components of any dietary menu. Well, when doing fitness (and any other sports), meat is an indispensable component. After all, only by consuming enough protein can you keep your body in good physical shape and your muscles toned.

When buying pig meat, you need to decide in advance what you will make from it. Read this article on how to deliciously cook pork in pieces. So, to prepare lean pork meat, you should choose tenderloin - the most dietary part of the carcass. But in the absence of this valuable part on the shelves, ham or rump will do.

pork tenderloin - 1-1.2 kg;
pitted prunes - 100-110 g;
a couple of onions;
crushed nutmeg - 1/4 teaspoon;
a couple of teaspoons of cumin;
1 teaspoon curry powder;
a mixture of any dried herbs (rosemary, basil, thyme) - a couple of teaspoons;
corn oil - 90 ml;
apple juice - as much as needed (about 100-150 ml);
Add salt and ground black pepper to taste (preferably freshly ground).

To prepare delicious pork, you need to properly prepare, trim and marinate it. Therefore, you should start cooking in the evening so that the meat is thoroughly soaked in spices and herbs overnight.

We wash the meat thoroughly in running water, trim off all the veins and fat.

Cut the pork into pieces approximately 5-7 cm in size. Place in a pan or bowl in which we will marinate and add all the spices. Mix very thoroughly, cover with a lid and place in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours.

Before stewing, remove the prepared meat from the refrigerator so that it comes to room temperature.

Cut the onion into half rings.

We transfer the onions and meat into a thick-walled frying pan, pour oil and apple juice into it and put it on the fire. Bring the entire mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about half an hour. During this time, if necessary, add apple juice and stir the contents so that the pork does not fry.

While the lean pork is stewing in a frying pan, prepare the prunes - rinse and soak in hot water. Then put it in a frying pan - about 10-15 minutes before the meat is ready. The total cooking time for pork pieces in a frying pan is 40-45 minutes.

Tip: To prevent the meat from becoming dry or overcooked, keep an eye on the level of liquid in the pot or pan, adding more as needed.

You can serve boiled potatoes or rice as a side dish for this meat, and any other cereal goes well with this dish.

Is it possible to eat meat while losing weight?

The basis of meat is protein and important amino acids necessary for muscle growth and maintaining metabolic processes, including fat burning. The product is necessary primarily for normal life. Since with its deficiency the body begins to experience stress, the following problems appear:

the hemoglobin content in the blood decreases;
glucose levels increase;
brain activity suffers;
mood worsens;
weakens the immune system.

All this leads to the fact that the issue of “burning excess” is relegated to the background. The first priority is solving more important problems - maintaining health.

In addition, lean meat itself is not high in calories, but consists of muscle compounds that require a lot of energy to digest. Consequently, after a meat meal, a person does not feel hungry for a very long time, and all the nutrients obtained from the dish are immediately wasted.

Taking this into account, we can say that meat should not be excluded from their diet for those who want to have a beautiful body, and not just a thin and emaciated body.

Tips and tricks

When purchasing meat, be sure to take a closer look at its color. The meat of a young pig or pig is light pink with white layers of fat. If you are offered dark-colored meat with yellow fatty layers, rest assured that it is the meat of an old pig.

Fresh pork is dense and elastic, pressure marks quickly disappear. It does not have an unpleasant odor, and the fat should be, as already mentioned, white.

When preparing pork dishes, especially fillet, it is recommended to boil/fry the meat, since very often it contains parasite larvae.

To learn how to prepare a dietary pork dinner, watch the following video.

Due to its taste and ease of preparation, pork is one of the most common and consumed types of meat throughout the world. However, it is believed that pork is a fatty and high-calorie meat that is not suitable for proper nutrition. In this regard, many who want to lose weight exclude it from their diet, but it is completely in vain, since low-calorie dietary dishes can also be prepared from pork.

Which one to choose

Experts believe that an adult needs to eat about half a kilogram of cooked meat every day. But in order for it to bring benefits to the body, and not unnecessary folds on the stomach, it is worth considering some nuances.

Boiled, fried

Meat for weight loss needs to be cooked properly. During processing, the product should not receive additional calories, so the use of oil and any other fat should be abandoned. However, frying in a dry grill pan or with a Teflon coating is allowed from time to time.

The main methods of cooking meat should be boiling, stewing and baking with the addition of natural spices, but with a minimum amount of salt. It wouldn’t hurt to use kitchen gadgets – a steamer or a pressure cooker. In them, the meat will cook faster and retain more of its nutrients.

Which one should you prefer?

When choosing meat itself, preference should be given to lean types with the least amount of fat. Because it is full of cholesterol, the excess of which is harmful not only to the figure, but also to the cardiovascular system. Help in the fight against excess weight:

Turkey meat
. It is most popular among nutritionists. This meat is easily tolerated without overloading the digestive system.
Chicken
. Breast fillet contains the most protein and very little fat. From time to time it is allowed to eat other parts of this bird. Just be sure to contain no skin or by-products.
Rabbit meat
. In addition to the “standard” benefits for meat, it contains a lot of phosphorus and calcium. But the specific smell requires a special preparation method.
Beef
. Eating this meat helps prevent anemia, which often accompanies the process of losing weight. However, it is worth considering that it contains more fat than poultry. Therefore, it is better not to partake in a diet containing beef.

The value of other types of meat for weight loss is not very high. Their calorie content is significantly higher due to the animal fat content. Therefore, the process of fighting extra pounds will be in question.

Of course, for kebabs and cooking over coals, it is better to choose fattier parts, since they are the ones that turn out juicy and not dry. Well, for dietary nutrition, boiling and baking, tenderloin or back ham (without lard) is still suitable.

In order for meat dishes to really bring benefits, it is better to eat them in the first half of the day - this is the time when proteins are actively absorbed and the body’s cells are renewed.

Diet with meat for weight loss

To achieve the best effect, you can not just include meat in your menu, but make it the basis of a protein diet. Today, several variants of such power systems are known. The main thing is to force the body to burn excess fat by limiting the supply of “ready energy” from food. At the same time, food rich in proteins will prevent those who are losing weight from feeling hungry.

Permitted and prohibited products

During the diet, you will have to give up foods rich in carbohydrates and some others. This ban includes:

all fruits and dried fruits;
cereals and pasta;
bakery products;
sugar and its substitutes;
some vegetables (potatoes, carrots, etc.);
milk and dairy products;
sausages;
canned food;
store-bought sauces;
alcohol.

Meat, eggs and vegetables can be prepared in any way. The main thing is not to use fats and other prohibited ingredients.

Example menu

Depending on individual preferences, you can choose the optimal diet menu yourself. For example, it might look like this:

Breakfast: one egg omelet with fresh tomato.
Second breakfast: fresh vegetable salad.
Lunch: 250 g of stewed rabbit and vegetable stew.
Afternoon snack: 50 g of boiled chicken fillet and one cucumber.
Dinner: 200 g turkey steak with a side dish of lettuce, seasoned with olive oil.

If you don’t have time to prepare a variety of dishes, you can do it easier. Every day, boil or bake 500 g of meat or fish and divide into several meals. The side dish can be fresh or permitted vegetables cooked without adding oil.

In order for the diet to bring good results, you should pay attention to the following nuances:

You can only eat 500 g of meat per day, while there is no limit for fresh vegetables.
During the diet, you must drink at least two liters of clean water.
Drink tea or coffee without sugar, but only between main meals.
The diet should consist of five to six meals. And the last one is three hours before bedtime.
Servings for breakfast, lunch and dinner should not exceed 300 g, and snacks - 150 g.

It is highly advisable to supplement this way of eating with physical exercise. They will help excess weight go away faster and smooth out the discomfort caused by dietary restrictions.

Advantages and disadvantages

An undeniable advantage of such a diet is the absence of hunger due to the consumption of large amounts of meat. At the same time, the product will be well absorbed due to the abundance of fresh vegetables, which will also replenish the body’s need for vitamins and fiber.

In addition, with the necessary physical activity during the diet, the figure can acquire a beautiful relief. Because the protein that comes with meat is enough to build muscle mass.

As for the shortcomings, the main one is apathy and a feeling of fatigue due to the lack of “energy” products. These are frequent companions of protein diets, and good motivation helps to cope with them.

Constipation

Another disadvantage is stool disturbance. If you do not follow the drinking regime, it will be difficult to manage without laxatives on a meat diet.

Duration

The duration of the diet can vary from three to ten days. It all depends on the result you want to achieve. There is an opinion that you can follow a meat diet for longer (up to a month). But this is very risky for several reasons:

Too much dietary restriction can have a detrimental effect on the functioning of internal organs.
A lack of fats and carbohydrates will affect the condition of the skin and nervous system.
The body, under conditions of constant “restrictions,” will stop burning excess fat, and will begin to accumulate it.

Therefore, you should not get too carried away with this method of losing weight.

Contraindications

Like any diet that involves dietary restrictions, meat is not suitable for everyone. Therefore, before starting it, it is better to consult a doctor.

during pregnancy;
for kidney disease;
teenagers and older people;
if you have diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

For people whose activities involve intense mental work, this method of losing weight is also not suitable. The lack of glucose will affect brain activity and work productivity will be low.

Baked with squid

This dish is distinguished by its originality, because meat baked with some seafood is not often seen on the menu. Pork with squid in the oven is a real pleasure for gourmets.

pork tenderloin weighing 500-600 g
6 squid carcasses
bulb
100 g cheese
garlic clove
two tablespoons of sour cream
two tablespoons of adjika, a spicy seasoning for meat
to taste salt to taste
a little water for extinguishing

Cooking time: 40 minutes

We wash the pork, cut it into cubes and place it in a heated frying pan with a small amount of water. Peel the onion, cut into half rings and add to the pork. Finely chop the garlic and place it in the pan, stirring. Let's simmer everything together with spices and adjika.

Pour boiling water over the squid and peel, boil in salted water for 3 minutes, cut into rings.

Preheat the oven to 180°C, grease a refractory pan with oil and line it with foil. Mix the stewed meat with onions with squid and sour cream and place in the prepared pan.

Sprinkle everything with grated cheese, cover with foil and put in the oven for 15 minutes.

The secret of the cheese crust is that, when melted in the oven, the cheese does not allow moisture to escape from the meat, so the pork turns out tender and not dry.

When eating properly, make sure that the meat is always well-cooked or baked - raw pork can lead to diseases from parasites that live in raw meat: toxoplasma, pork tapeworm and trichinella.

How to choose dietary pork for baking

To make pork low-calorie, you need not only dietary recipes. First of all, you need to choose the right, low-fat piece.

A lean meat product, as a rule, can be taken from a young carcass. You can determine the age by color: the flesh should be light pink in color. There should be no dark streaks on the meat. The young flesh should be easy to press, but if the meat is tough, do not buy it.
To bake dietary pork, choose sirloin, tenderloin and shoulder. Choose a well-cut product, of course without layers of fat.
Before purchasing, carefully inspect the piece of meat; it must be without cuts and absolutely intact. This way the meat will cook evenly both inside and outside.

Be sure to smell the pork before purchasing. A pleasant aroma speaks in favor of the product, but if the meat has a sour, unpleasant smell, you have a stale or already spoiled product. If the meat has no odor at all, it means it has been processed in order to preserve its presentation for as long as possible.

You can buy meat at the market or in a store. In the store you can buy pork by weight or already packaged. Each package must have a production date and shelf life. If you buy a meat product by weight, also check the shelf life of the product; usually the dates are marked on the trays. Don't take the seller's word for it, because you risk buying a low-quality product.

Result

According to experts, the result of switching to a diet with a predominance of meat can be a weight loss of five kilograms in almost one week. At the same time, the figure will not look emaciated. Because the excess fat layer will go away, revealing the muscle pattern. Of course, the best results will come not only from following a diet according to all the rules, but also from physical activity. Therefore, before you start changing your menu, you should sign up for a gym.

Not everyone has a slim and beautiful figure. But you can improve your body by choosing the right weight loss method. A diet based on meat will appeal to those who know how to motivate themselves. And the first results will become the foundation for new achievements.

The easiest way to prepare dietary dishes is from meat. Although, it depends on who is used to what. Some people don’t find the tenderloin appetizing until it’s fried in at least a glass of oil. And give others more flour and loaf in cutlets. In general, in reality, meat dishes are easy to prepare for those who love minimalism in food. Not in terms of portions, but in terms of culinary manipulations. It is practically impossible to imitate the taste of such dishes as fried cutlets or roast baked with cheese and mayonnaise. Another thing is that you can learn how to cook relatively low-calorie dishes that are delicious.

How to cook dietary meat dishes

The most general rule is not to fry. By immersing food in hot oil, we get something that is not very healthy and is 200 kcal “heavier” than the original version. Most doctors do not approve of eating fatty pork and lamb cooked in its own fat. Dishes made from such meat may be tasty, but they are not very beneficial. They can increase blood cholesterol levels, contribute to hypertension, and are not very beneficial even for healthy people.

Frying in oil is replaced by baking:

in foil for soft meat, as if steamed;
in a baking bag – gives a delicate consistency;
in parchment, special baking paper, to get a slightly drier crust;
grilled - for an almost complete imitation of fried meat without frying.

The fastest ways to prepare meat for a diet are stewing with a small amount of water and steaming.

Almost any recipe is suitable for goulash and fillet. The main thing is that it should not be there:

frying in bread crumbs, breading, flour;
marinade from mayonnaise or sauces such as “Thousand Islands” or “Cheese”;
a large amount of oil in a vegetable side dish for meat;
“cheese pillows” and other heritage of Soviet catering with mayonnaise, cheese and butter on meat.

People who have been on a diet for a long time usually do not bother themselves too much with cooking. Meat in pieces with seasonings in foil and some vegetables and cereals as a side dish appear in their diet more often than cutlets and other minced meat products.

Culinary experiments with pork can be quite varied - the meat is combined with many vegetables, marinades, herbs, etc. The most popular methods of cooking on a diet:

Baking. Pork cooked according to a dietary recipe in the oven has a golden crust and an appetizing aroma. However, fried meat negatively affects the liver and slows down the process of losing weight. For a diet, it is best to bake meat in foil and not use oil. This oven-baked pork will turn out to be truly dietary and tasty.
Frying in a frying pan. This option turns out to be very appetizing, but extremely undesirable on a diet. Naturally fatty meat absorbs vegetable oil, which is why the calorie content of the dish almost doubles! If you like your pork roasted, it is better to use a grill or a special non-stick frying pan. Also, do not over-fry the product, increasing the load on the liver.
In a slow cooker. This pork will cook quickly enough, retain its natural taste and will be useful for losing weight. The main condition is not to add oil. By activating the “Stew” mode, you can get the most juicy portion of your favorite meat.
For a couple. This cooking option will provide minimal calorie content to the dish. At the same time, the meat turns out tender and juicy in taste.
Cooking. Boiled pork, although low in calories, loses some of its taste during the cooking process and becomes tougher. This option can be used for a variety of soups and salads, combined with interesting side dishes, spices and dressings. Without such an addition, the taste of pork will be inferior compared to other processing options.

The most preferred way to process pork is steaming and braising (can be eaten almost every day in moderation). They reveal the natural taste of meat and do not harm the figure.

Important! For cooking, choose lean pieces of pork meat - without layers of fat. An ideal option for dietary dishes is young pork.

Dietary dishes made from minced meat

Beef cutlets with mushrooms

400 g each of champignons and beef tenderloin, 1 onion, 1 tablespoon of corn starch, 1 tablespoon of oat or rye bran, egg or protein.

Soak the bran in water, beat the egg, add to the bran, add starch, and leave. Cook the champignons in a small amount of water in a flat frying pan. Grind the tenderloin together with the onion, and chop the prepared mushrooms as well. Mix the minced meat ingredients and form cutlets with wet hands. Place the finished products on 1 sheet of foil and cover with another, bake in the oven at 200 degrees for about 40 minutes.

Cutlets in a slow cooker

500 g beef tenderloin, 1 onion, ground black pepper, 2 tablespoons oat bran, 1 tablespoon cottage cheese, 4 egg whites.

Make minced meat from beef and onions. Beat the whites with a mixer, add bran, mix, add cottage cheese and beat everything together. Combine with minced meat, stir until smooth. Set the multicooker to “stew” mode, place the cutlets in a bowl lightly greased with olive oil. Bake for 20 minutes on one side and 15 minutes on the other side. You can splash water on the bottom of the bowl, and then you will get steamed cutlets.

Cutlets with cabbage and veal

400 g cauliflower, onion, 400-500 g lean veal, 1 onion, salt, ground black pepper, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon corn starch, 1 tablespoon rye flour.

Cook cauliflower in a double boiler or boil in slightly salted water. Prepare minced meat from the recipe ingredients, turn the cabbage into puree and mix with it. Form patties with wet hands and steam in a steamer for 20 minutes in a medium bowl. You can make zrazy from the same recipe - add half a glass of boiled brown rice and 1 grated carrot to the minced meat, and instead of one egg, take an egg and 4 egg whites.

Rub thoroughly with salt, pepper and meat seasoning. Cut the onion into half rings, mix with the meat and, if time permits, leave to marinate for 12 hours; if not, then at least for half an hour.
2. Peel the potatoes and cut them into slices.
3. Grease a baking sheet with vegetable oil and lay out in layers: potatoes, meat, greased with mayonnaise, onions on top of the meat, then tomatoes cut into rings.
