Kruchenyky (meat rolls): Приготування

Крок 1

Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F degrees.

Крок 2

Cut the pork loin into portion-sized pieces. Cover with plastic wrap and pound each piece until tender. Rub it with salt and pepper.

Крок 3

Mix small pieces of pork fat or fatty bacon with finely chopped garlic and dill. Add thyme and blend in a food processor until smooth.

Крок 4

Form the fat-and-herbs mass into logs, place each in the center of a pork loin piece, leaving room on the sides, then roll up. Secure each roll with a toothpick.

Крок 5

On to the two-step coating process. Coat each meat roll in flour, then dip into egg wash, and then sprinkle with semolina.

Крок 6

Place the rolls on a hot oiled pan and fry for several minutes until golden brown on all sides.

Крок 7

Move the rolls to a roasting tray lined with baking paper and roast for 15 minutes.
