How to make stunning meatless borscht? Easy!

The heroine’s mileyshey D. Dontsova sales of meat department taught cook Ukrainian borscht. The main component was, of course, pork, he says, we're not Katsap, so soup cook. I've always preferred as the basis for the broth is beef brisket. Until then, while simultaneously on the neighboring burners do not cooked borsch two: her husband - a traditional, meat, and myself - lean. Frankly speaking, the effect turned out so unexpected, that since "his" soup I eat only with hunger, if not "my". 

And it did not in principles, I am not a vegetarian, and so fat as I love salt, but with garlic - nuts! By the way, my mother in law, the net Ukrainian, recommends it as an excellent remedy for allergies, quite rightly, try. 

And not in the health care business. Frankly, there is a reason in the arguments of doctors that the concentrated broth backhand blow to the liver, because it instantly absorbed into the blood, unable to digest. But who knows what filth we shoved ourselves because delicious! This meatless borscht and I went for the same reason. Fabulously delicious! It turned out that the meat coarsening, quenching brightest flavors allies the vegetables. 

Thus, we begin with the beets. Peeled raw root should grate on medium grater, then sprinkle with something acidic to preserve the color (the usual vinegar or what you like, or lemon, or the diluted citric acid), add the tomato puree or chopped tomatoes, spoon vegetable oil (I pour refined sunflower that did not affect the taste) and put out about 10 minutes under the lid on the stove or 5 minutes in the microwave. 

Meanwhile, the traditional zazharka onion-carrot at medium grater with a bit of the same oil - in a skillet or again in the microwave. 

Cabbage, I prefer to cut thinner, smaller potatoes. Borsch because the very strength is on the second day, yesterday's boiled potatoes dish is not no grace, and without it, too, can not be attached to the noble and the density of starch. So I often and on a large grater shoot. In general, the soup - expanse for food processor and other mechanized, with certain skills for 30 minutes, you can manage. 

Connect. Cabbage and potatoes in a saucepan, pour boiling water, boil 5 minutes - beets there, 5 more minutes - zazharku, salt if you like - a drop of sugar to, pepper, clove, the smallest leaf Lavrushka - switch off! 

For the creative mind. You can start with what to cook beans , completely replacing its meat, then at its broth all the scheme, then you can abstain from potatoes. 

You can add the tomato at the end of cooking, I love cooked tart cubes in the top layer among the greenery. 

You can experiment with spices: Hop-suneli, basil that is love. I love the parsley and dill. And as for sour cream: In my opinion, suppresses the taste, and you - as you like.
