Pork meat with zucchini and tomatoes. How to cook pork with zucchini in a frying pan, in the oven and in a slow cooker Recipes with zucchini and pork

I happily alternate the usual roast with potatoes with stewed pork, zucchini and tomatoes. Fortunately, the dacha generously provides all kinds of vegetables, giving an impetus to look for new recipe options for dishes with them. So today, having taken out the old faithful cauldron, I decided to prepare a fairly quick and easy, sort of, pork stew dish, using young fresh zucchini and ripe, delicious tomatoes.

Recipe ingredients:

  • Lean pork fillet (for those who wish, veal or poultry is suitable) - five hundred grams,
  • a couple of young zucchini,
  • five to six fresh tomatoes of strong varieties,
  • a pair of onions,
  • carrots - a couple of medium ones,
  • sweet pepper,
  • fresh greens,
  • salt and pepper - to taste,
  • one hundred grams of vegetable oil for frying.


How to cook pork meat with zucchini and tomatoes, with photos

After washing the meat and stripping it of films, cut it into medium-sized cubes, so that when you eat it you feel like you are eating meat and not minced meat.


Place the prepared pieces of pork or beef in a cauldron with heated oil and let simmer over fairly high heat.


At this time, wash the vegetables, leave the tomatoes alone, and peel the zucchini, carrots, bell peppers and onions.


Chop the onion finely and add it to the meat after ten minutes, mix well, chop the greens, and cut the carrot into strips.


Cut the peeled zucchini into large cubes, cut the tomatoes and peppers into large strips, and chop the greens.


After adding salt, fry in a frying pan, separately from the cooking meat. We start with carrots, after about five minutes add zucchini,


then tomatoes with sweet peppers and herbs. Fry over medium heat for ten to fifteen minutes.


By this time, the contents in the cauldron begin to “wink,” saying, add vegetables.

From the frying pan, transfer the vegetables into a container with half-cooked pork.


Add salt, mix, close the lid and let simmer on low heat for another twenty minutes.




Serve the meat with zucchini and tomatoes to the table with fresh or canned vegetables. The dish turns out very tender, juicy, and there are a lot of benefits in it! And at the end of lunch, the family will be in great demand for a very worthy pastry. Bon appetit!

Zucchini and pork themselves are very tasty foods. And if you combine them together in one dish, you get simply amazing taste.

  • For meat cooked with zucchini, you can chop the garlic in different ways, as well as add it at different stages of cooking. The taste and aroma of the prepared dish depends on this choice;
  • Are there any greens in the list of ingredients? Don’t be embarrassed, just add it yourself. The usual parsley and regular dill, as well as aromatic cilantro or fresh basil, are perfect for this concoction. Be guided only by your preferences in choosing this ingredient;
  • It is advisable to prepare this dish for one meal. There is no need to prepare for future use. Pork and zucchini heated several times loses its structure and taste;
  • before slicing and adding to the meat component, it doesn’t hurt to remove the skin of the oblong vegetable, so the cooking will be more tender;
  • during stewing, the water that we add can be replaced with broth, sour cream, milk or cream;
  • choose spices, as well as herbs, according to your own preferences. Pork and zucchini can be flavored with grated ginger, coriander, nutmeg, etc.

Greetings to everyone who stopped by the Culinary Academy of Smart Housewives after the long May holidays and I want to ask the following question. Do you consider pink salmon a rather dry fish? If your answer is Yes, then you simply didn’t cook it according to this recipe!😉😝 I suggest baking pink salmon in sour cream - I guarantee you will get a juicy, tender hearty dish🤗

Hello, my dear Smart Housewives and Hosts! Admit it, who is already tired of eating Easter eggs just like that😀😀😀?! Here is a recipe for a simple and delicious snack that can be prepared in just five minutes! It turns out bright, interesting, beautiful! It’s not a shame to put it on the festive table👍.

Good afternoon to everyone who visited the Culinary Academy! Continuing the theme of the Easter table, I bring a recipe for a festively decorated salad. It seems like an ordinary salad with canned saury, but what an interesting presentation ...🤔Easter chicken🐥 just wants to get on your Easter table!!! 😂

Hello I meet everyone visitors of the Culinary Academy and I bring you this year’s first recipe for the Easter table - cottage cheese Easter. Every year I make Easter according to different recipes - sometimes with or with condensed milk😋, so this year I have prepared something new for you🤗. We'll make Easter with Oreo cookies - oh how🤩. Easter with Oreo cookies turns out dense, buttery, smooth, and tastes like GOST cheese curds in chocolate (if you're a fan, don't pass by🤗). Easter is easy to prepare, the ingredients are the most common, no raw eggs, a kilogram of butter, etc. but at the same time it is quite worthy of a festive Easter table 👍🤩! Thanks to Irina Kutova and her wonderful website Gudkuk for the recipe💋

Hello, my dears! Today at the Culinary Academy of Smart Housewives we have a recipe for an original cottage cheese casserole. How is it original, you ask? And the fact that it’s usual, but this one...tadamm is salty😲. Despite the unusual combination, it turns out juicy, tender, and tasty. Although why is it unusual? 🤔 ? We eat curd cheeses with unsweetened fillings - with the same dill, pickled cucumbers, mushrooms - and nothing, we are not indignant 😆. So I recommend trying unsweetened cottage cheese casserole as a light, nutritious breakfast or dinner.

The main thing here is not to overdry the meat so that it does not turn out tough. And by the way, the choice of pork also matters. Use the neck, shoulder or loin portions of the carcass. Then the meat will turn out soft and juicy.
