Beetroot salad with beef

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Beetroot according to this recipe simply can't turn out tasteless! You can cook without meat and it also turns out very tasty!

2. Step 2:

   

   But I usually do with meat. You can take any meat you like. I cooked with chicken, turkey, pork or beef, and it always turns out very tasty! Wash the meat, cut it into pieces and put it to cook. While the meat is cooking, chop the vegetables.

3. Step 3:

   

   Try to cut thinly. You can use a grater for straws, but I got the hang of cutting with a knife and using a grater only if you need to cook soup very quickly. Potatoes are also cut into strips, but larger, you can like fries. We leave 1 piece whole!

4. Step 4:

   

   Pepper is also straws, and tomatoes - I scroll through a meat grinder or on a grater. You can pour boiling water over them, remove the skin and also cut with a knife. Whichever you like best.

5. Step 5:

   

   When the meat starts to boil, remove the foam and turn down the heat. Add spices - peppercorns and allspice (I grind it with a pestle, I don't like it when it gets on the tooth in a ready dish) and bay leaf.Put it to your taste. I put 10-15 peas of black pepper, 2 leaves of lavrushka and 2 peas of allspice. We throw there 1 potato, which we did not cut.

6. Step 6:

   

   When the meat is ready, add the remaining potatoes, and pull out the whole potato. While this thing is cooking, stew the vegetables. If you cook without meat, then we start from here. We cook potatoes on the water.

8. Step 7:

   

   Fry the onion in vegetable oil in a cauldron. Make sure that the onion does not burn, but becomes golden evenly. You can use a wok or a deep frying pan. The main thing is that all the vegetables fit there.

9. Step 8:

   

   Add carrots and beets to the onion at the same time. Don't worry if there will be enough vegetables. They take comfort. Turn down the heat and cover the case with a lid. Simmer, stirring occasionally.

10. Step 9:

    

    When the vegetables are almost ready, i.e. not crunchy, but also not quite soft, add tomatoes. And simmer for another 10 minutes.

11. Step 10:

    

    When the vegetables are stewed, turn off the heat and check the potatoes in a saucepan with meat. He should be ready. If not ready, do not worry, cook until ready. As the potatoes are cooked, add stewed vegetables and fresh pepper to the pan. Boiled potatoes, which we previously pulled out of the pan, are grated on a fine grater or kneaded with a fork. And this mashed potatoes in the same pot with soup. We give the fire a little more and let it boil for 5 minutes. You can add any greens.

12. Step 11:

    

    Beetroot is ready. You can eat with or without sour cream. If you like sour soups, add lemon juice or sour bran kvass. Bon appetit!
