  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make borscht with sausage and beets? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. This borscht can be cooked with meat broth or simply with water. I had meat broth. I used it to cook borscht. Peel all vegetables in advance and rinse thoroughly in running water to remove contaminants. I use boiled sausage for borscht. But you can also take smoked one. If your beets are small, then take 2 pieces.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Bring the broth to a boil. Cut the peeled potatoes into small cubes. Place the chopped potatoes in the boiling broth and cook for 10 minutes.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Chop the kaputa thinly. Finely chop the onion. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater. Place the cabbage in the pan with the potatoes and cook everything together for another 10-15 minutes.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Pour a little vegetable oil into a hot frying pan and fry the onions and carrots for 3-5 minutes. Don't forget to stir so the vegetables don't start to burn.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Grate the beets on a coarse grater and fry for 5-7 minutes. During frying, the beets will shrink slightly in size.

My daughter sometimes asks me to cook her soup with different sausages. I cooked her borscht with sausage and beets. In principle, this borscht is cooked in the same way as regular one. Only with minor changes. I decided that broth would be tastier and more satisfying. Therefore, I took the beef broth left over from preparing another dish. While the potatoes and cabbage were cooking, I lightly fried the carrots and onions. I added it to the pan and fried the beets in the same pan, seasoning them with lemon juice for a bright color. I didn't add any garlic or spices. I cut the boiled sausage into cubes, put it in a saucepan and brought to a boil. I didn’t insist so that the sausage wouldn’t steam too much. She immediately poured it into a plate and called her daughter for dinner. I liked that this borscht cooks very quickly. And the taste is not inferior to its brothers. It is light, tasty, filling. The sausage acquired a sweetish taste thanks to beets. We liked this recipe, now I’ll try adding sausages or ready-made carbonate. Thanks for the recipe!
