Borscht with potatoes tomatoes and beans

Amazingly delicious, rich borscht with tomatoes and bell pepper. Very tasty. Due to circumstances, it turned out that living in Germany, it is not always possible to buy the same products as in Ukraine. And we love borscht very much, so I adapted to cook our Ukrainian borscht in German conditions. :) The taste is not inferior to anything, but the cooking time has been significantly reduced.

So let's get started.
Wash the meat, pour cold water, put on fire, bring to a boil, remove the foam, and then cook the broth until the meat is ready on low heat for about 1 hour.
At this time, we wash, clean, and cut vegetables.
We take out the meat, cut it into small cubes, put it back into the meat broth, bring it to a boil, lightly salt it and put the potatoes. Cook on low heat for 5 minutes.
Add chopped cabbage to the broth with meat and potatoes and cook for 10 minutes on low heat.
At this time we are preparing a roast. Onions, carrots, bell peppers are fried in vegetable oil. Fried vegetables are combined with flour, also fried in oil. Add tomatoes, fry lightly, add tomato paste if necessary (if the tomatoes are not very ripe or the color is not saturated enough), mix everything and pour in meat broth. Bring the roast to a boil, put it on a very slow fire and simmer for a few minutes. Remove from the fire.
Add canned beans and beets to the broth. At the end we put allspice and bay leaf.
Rub garlic with salt in a mortar, add lard and continue to grind until smooth.
Add the roast to the borscht, stir well, bring to a boil and season with bacon and garlic. We try, add ground pepper, if necessary - salt, finely chopped green onions and parsley. And once again bring to a boil and remove from the fire. Let it brew for 10 minutes (if desired, it can be longer). Borscht is ready. Serve with sour cream. You can decorate with parsley.
Bon appetit!

Take the amount of water at your discretion. You can reduce it or increase it at your request, depending on whether you want to get a thick or more liquid soup.
