Calorie plov with pork. Calorie content of pilaf with beef

Although pilaf by origin - Asian, he has long and reliably entered the menu of the average Russian. Probably, there is no one our compatriot who would not periodically cook this dish. "The owners" of the recipe, most likely, do not agree with the fact that this is their dish, since in the original it should contain lamb, and we replace it with other kinds of meat. But for us it's still pilaf, we love it, appreciate it and cook quite often.

Nutty, but useful

Definitely pilov - a dish is not dietary. Nutrition is so great that plov is enough for a full dinner. However, it can not be called a harmful food, since all the ingredients contain elements necessary for man. The main component is rice - a carrier of a large number of vitamins, trace elements and minerals (among which iodine, potassium, iron and calcium are most valuable), starch and fiber.

The importance of carrots and onions is not worth talking about. Orange vegetable is used even to prevent cancer, strengthen vision and immunity and reduce blood pressure.

Meat and fat most increase the calorie content of pilaf. With pork, it will be more, with other types of meat - slightly lower, but for dieters anyway this dish fits little. At the same time, meat remains necessary: it supplies the person with the necessary proteins, salts of minerals and some vitamins.

For all its increased nutritional value, pilaf is very easily digested, so it can be eaten even by those who do not have too neglected digestive problems eat.

The most delicious option

And let caloric content plov with pork is maximum, for us it remains the most attractive. The main thing in its preparation is to observe all the rules, in spite of the satiety, it is easy to assimilate and give a taste of pleasure. Do not make a mistake in spices - the first guarantee of success. So do not forget the zir, paprika, turmeric, and be sure to find Dorvor. The second component, which will help to avoid failure, is a well-crafted zirvak, that is, meat, overcooked with vegetables, cooked before laying the rice. Here the main condition is to cook it on high fire. The third rule is not to interfere with rice, so that it turns out that it is pilaf, and not porridge with meat.

The recipes of this dish are a million. But if you do all of the above, they will make the right dish. And if you are only interested in caloric content of plov with pork, then take care of selecting a part of the carcass. The average calorie content of plov with this meat is 285 kcal. If you take a fat cervix or add fat (bacon), it will reach 300. And if you choose a relatively lean piece, and if you cut fat layers, get a pilau from pork, the calorie content of which will drop to 240-250 kcal.

For gourmets - beef

One of the varieties, which is recognized and Muslim "inventors" - pilaf with beef. If the pig is an animal dirty, then they do not protest against cows. There is even a special recipe, which is called "Uzbek pilaf beef". Features in cooking exist, but too significant. And the calorific value of pilaf with beef is much lower.

The main differences: meat should be carefully cleaned from veins and films - this time. The second: after frying zirvak it should be put out. Extinguishing will take from an hour (if you took veal) to two (if you found only the meat of an adult cow). And the third: when everything is ready, the fire is extinguished, but the contents of the cauldron under the lid should be insisted for at least half an hour. All these measures are aimed at removing the stiffness of meat. But the calorific value of pilaf with beef will be only 215 kcal, and if you take quite low-fat pieces - and up to 200 will decrease. For those concerned with their figure, this is a significant difference. If we compare the beef variant and the caloric content of plov with pork, the figures in the first case are very encouraging.

Vegetable fantasies

Anxiety about overweight caused a lot of recipes in which meat does not participate, and pilaf is present. Delicious, you want, but you have to limit yourself. So invented variants of squash, eggplant pilaf; The same dish with dried apples and carrots, apple-nettle modification; Pilaf with sweet pepper or lemon. It can not be said that these are too successful replacements. For example, aubergines instead of meat will not reduce nutrition: such a pilaf is comparable with a favorite, with pork (287 kcal). Eggplants are comparable to the beef variant - the same 214 kcal. Is that apples, nettles and Bulgarian peppers are fully consistent with the diet: from 86 to 165 kcal. But after all, the taste is vegetarian!

And mushrooms are good!

The way of cooking mushroom pilaf does not quite match the usual. It is understandable - what a dirk, if there is no meat. Mushrooms, onions and carrots are roasted separately, rice is brewed.

Then all the components are added to where the fried mushrooms, and even mixed. However, if you add spices to the Asian dish, you will still get a pilaf with mushrooms, the caloric content of which will fluctuate from 91 to 170 kcal, depending on what kind of mushrooms and what else you used.

The most dietary pilaf

All depends first of all on what "filling" you have chosen for the dish. If you are inclined to a meat option, the most malnutritionary and dietary is chicken. Moreover, if you resort to modern kitchen appliances. So, the chicken in the composition of this dish, cooked traditionally, will give the dish somewhere 170 calories, if the bird gets fat or take a chicken. Cooked from the same chicken pilaf in the multivark calorie content will not be more than 140. The beef variety of pilaf in the multivarque of 215 kcal will lose somewhere around 50, and the same amount - the pork. At least 165 calories will remain, but if you compare them with 220 or 280, losing weight urgently have to run to the store for a multivar.

And if you choose pilaf without meat, and even low-calorie, then you have to stop on the nettle-apple variation. She will bring you only 86 calories - against the background of all other recipes is a record. The second place is occupied by dried apples, "diluted" with carrots - they draw on 126. The proud third place is for the Bulgarian pepper with its 165 kcal. Other vegetables are even inferior in energy to even chicken, so they are unlikely to contribute to weight loss.

As you can see, pilaf is different and to taste, and in composition. Choose what suits you, and do not deny yourself the pleasure of this dish, even if you are dieting.
