Jellied meat is a dish that can be prepared both for a holiday and for an everyday table instead of a second course. Almost everyone loves to eat it, but not everyone can cook, because you will have to tinker with it in the kitchen. But it's worth it! Also, ready-made jellied meat can be stored well in the refrigerator without problems, which means that by making a large portion, you can reduce your work for several days in advance. Usually, pork aspic is made only from legs (hooves) and chicken, but we will suggest adding a turkey leg, such a variety in food is only beneficial. I want to say right away that the cooking method is absolutely no different.

The proportions of turkey and pork can be adjusted in different directions. For example, you can put 0.5 kg of pork legs and 1.5 kg of turkey legs, so the jelly will not be worse.
