Meat with mushrooms in a pot

Grease the bottom of a clay pot with melted butter (1 tbsp). Place chunks of meat (300 g of pork or chicken), coarsely chopped mushrooms (150 g), carrot (1 piece, in large slices), onion (1 piece, in half rings), and grated garlic (3 cloves). Add salt, black pepper, and turmeric (to taste).

Put the pot in the oven at a temperature of 50–60 °C and gradually increase the heat to 160 °C. Bake for 15 minutes.

Do not place a cold pot in a hot oven — it may crack. Gradually warm it up.

Add tomato passata (150 g), mix, and return to the oven. Cook at 150–160 °C for another 40–50 minutes with the lid on.

10 minutes before readiness, if you allow dairy products, sprinkle the dish with grated cheese (30 g).

Before serving, garnish with herbs (to taste).
