How To Brown Ground Pork?

If you know how to sear ground pork, you can make various delicious dishes with it. Like simple stir fry with green beans, Egg Foo Young for keto diet, high protein spicy dish with Mapo Tofu.
And it’s also the best pre-meal. I like to make extra portions divide them into several packages and freeze them. It’s a great way to save time and make preparing your meals easier and faster.

Tips for searing ground pork:

1. Always preheat the pan on medium heat.
2. You don’t need to add oil because the fatty ground pork will realize the oil. The oil can make the ground meat moist without making it dry.
3. It’s best to use pork loin and leg hams, which are low in fat and higher in protein. The best ratio for ground meat is 70% lean meat and 30% fat meat. With this ratio, the pork won’t be too dry and tough.
4. Fry the meat over medium heat and don’t stir it at the beginning so that the meat doesn’t get watery and you get nice brown ground meat.
5. Always fry the pork in small portions, no more than 0.7 lb /300g at a time. If you take too much at a time, the ground meat won’t brown nicely and will become watery.

However, the calorie content is only 111 calories, which is even lower than the 117 calories of chicken breast.
