Beet caviar with tomato paste

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Products necessary for preparing beet caviar.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the carrots, peel and grate them on a fine grater, then simmer in a small amount of vegetable oil or water.

3. STEP 3

   

   Peel and finely chop the onion, simmer in a small amount of vegetable oil or water.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash the beets, peel and grate on a fine grater. Stew the beets in a small amount of vegetable oil or water.

5. STEP 5

   

   Combine vegetables. I first added stewed onions to the beets, and then carrots. But I think this is not important. Mix everything well, add sugar, salt, pepper and add tomato paste or ketchup. Mix everything well again and simmer over low heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring, so that excess liquid (if any) evaporates. If you like it spicy, then add more pepper, adjika and a little 2-3 cloves of garlic.

This is one of our family’s favorite vegetable dishes, especially in winter, when all the zucchini and eggplant delights are gone) Beetroot caviar goes well with meat dishes and any side dishes. I like it to be sweet and sour, so I always taste it at the end of cooking, and if the beets and carrots themselves are very sweet, then I sprinkle a little lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.

Girls, the question is, should you initially take the beets raw or boiled? Thank you)

I usually make several half-liter jars at once. I simmer longer and always add garlic. I close it while it's hot - it stands perfectly in the cabinet next to all the preparations. Sometimes there are no beets at home, but everyone is already in the mood for borscht - the jar is already ready
