How to make a pork neck in a frying pan? Very simple and fast. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Vegetable oil can be taken olive or sunflower depending on preferences. With sunflower, the taste of the upper crust on the meat will be softer, with olive - with a small characteristic hill. In addition to these spices, you can use your own to taste.

The pork neck must be removed from the refrigerator in advance and allowed to lie in the room for at least 1 hour so that the meat inside is the same temperature. Then wash the pork and dry with paper towels. Cut the piece across the fibres into slices about 1-1. 5cm thick each. I got 2 slices.

Pour the resulting pieces of pork over the lemon juice, sprinkle with pork spices, salt and pepper. Leave to marinate for 20 minutes at room temperature. If you use ready-made spice mixes, be sure to read the formulation on the packaging. Often salt and pepper are already present in such mixtures. Consider this, otherwise you risk salting and peppering the dish. Before frying, wet the pork with napkins.

In a thick-bottomed frying pan over a medium heat, heat the vegetable oil. Lay out the pork neck and fry for about 5 minutes on each side. The exact time depends on the desired degree of roasting and the thickness of the meat slices. If there is a grill pan, then it is better to cook on it - you will also get a beautiful pattern on the meat.

At the end of the roast, remove the pan from the heat. Cover and let the pork rest for 10 minutes to spread the meat juices evenly inside.

Serve the finished fried pork neck to the table with any side dish. Enjoy your meal!
