Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to cook a delicious combined meat hodgepodge with smoked meats? Very simple. You just need to follow the recipe. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. I have a beef shank, but you can take any other part on the bone. You can replace hunting sausages with ordinary smoked sausage.
Step 2:
Put the washed beef on a bone, smoked pork ribs, peeled whole onion, olives and peppers in boiling water. Cook over medium heat, removing the foam, for 1 hour. Adjust the amount of water to your liking. If you want a thicker soup, take about 2.5 liters of water, taking into account that part of it will evaporate during cooking.
Step 3:
While the broth is cooking, prepare the remaining ingredients. Cut the hunting sausages into slices.
Step 4:
Cut the carrots into semicircles. If the diameter of the carrot is small, you can just cut it into circles.
Step 5:
Cut cucumbers into cubes. If you have gherkins like mine, then you can cut them into circles. If desired, you can replace pickled cucumbers with pickled ones.
Step 6:
Peel the second onion and cut into small cubes.
Step 7:
Grate tomatoes on a fine grater, cutting off the skin. you can use canned sliced tomatoes in their own juice.
Step 8:
Remove pork ribs and beef from the broth. Separate the meat from the bones and cut into small pieces. Throw away the bones.
Step 9:
Return the chopped meat to the broth and bring to a boil again over medium heat.
Step 10:
Heat a third of the butter in a frying pan and fry the carrots for 5-7 minutes. Then transfer it to a saucepan.
Step 11:
Next, heat another third of the butter and fry the onion until transparent. Also transfer it to a saucepan.
Step 12:
Then add the sliced sausages and capers. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Step 13:
Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan, put the chopped tomatoes, chopped pickles and tomato paste. Simmer, stirring for 5 minutes.
Step 14:
Transfer the roast to a saucepan. Add bay leaves, salt to taste and simmer the soup over low heat for 30 minutes. If desired, pour in a little brine from olives or cucumbers.
Step 15:
Remove the pan from the stove, cover with a lid and let the hodgepodge stand for 10 minutes.
Step 16:
Then pour the soup on plates, adding a slice of lemon and some herbs to each. Bon appetit!
Important! Regardless of whether the amount of water for soup is indicated in the recipe or not, it is best to focus on your own preferences (thick or more liquid soup you like), as well as on the size of your pan and the products taken for cooking. Do not forget that the author has his own view on the amount of meat, potatoes, cereals and other ingredients in the soup, which may not coincide with yours. In practice, this means that if you are cooking for the first time, you should not cook a whole pot at once. Make a soup for tasting - for one or two people. To do this, reduce the amount of all ingredients according to the recipe to 1-2 servings, and take the amount of water from the calculation: from one cup per serving - if the soup is very thick, to 1.5-2 cups - if more liquid. Do not forget to take into account that part of the liquid will boil off during the cooking process. After tasting a small portion of soup, you can adjust both the amount of liquid and the proportions of ingredients to your taste. In the future, like most experienced housewives, you will be able to pour water for soup and lay the ingredients “by eye".
For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.
