Buckwheat with Meat

Dishes in clay pots have a special charm and, in my opinion, even tastier than cooked on a stove. Buckwheat in a pot with meat in an oven is a great idea for a family lunch or dinner. At the same time, we will have both meat and side dishes ready. During baking, the cereal is saturated with a unique aroma and acquires a delicious taste. The meat is very juicy and tender, and the vegetables successfully supplement the finished Russian kasha. The ideal addition will be homemade pickles, for example, tomatoes with garlic and greenery or zucchini pickles.
