Foil-Baked Roast Pork (Buzhenina)
Add some variety to the meat dishes on your family's menu and cook up something delicious! Buzhenina is a roasted pork that's hugely popular with my family. The perks of baking speak for themselves — a spicy flavor, not a drop of oil, no frying and no carcinogens. It's your call, of course, but I really do recommend this method.

- Rinse the meat, pat it dry with paper towels, and make small slits all over the surface with a knife.
- Peel the garlic and cut each clove lengthwise into a couple of slivers.
- On a plate, combine the spices and herbs — red pepper, black pepper, dried basil — along with the salt, and mix.
- Roll the garlic slivers in the dry spice mixture and tuck them into the slits in the meat.
- Brush the meat on all sides with mustard and sprinkle with the remaining spice mixture.
- Place the prepared meat in an appropriately sized container, cover it, and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
- Wrap the marinated meat in foil, sealing all the edges well. Set the bundle in a heatproof dish and put it in the oven.
- Set the temperature to 350°F (180°C) and bake the meat for an hour and a half, then lower the temperature to about 320°F (160°C) and bake for another 15 minutes. When the time is up, don't rush to take the meat out — let it rest for an hour or two, then carefully pour off the juices released during cooking; they'll come in handy for other dishes.
- Wrap the roast pork in foil and refrigerate it for 24 hours.
- The result is something to be proud of! So delicious that words can't do it justice!
- Enjoy, and cook it again soon!
