Cabbage solyanka with pork meat

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make solyanka from cabbage with pork meat? Prepare all the necessary products. Take fresh, seasonal vegetables, preferably from a new harvest, especially cabbage. Be sure to take pickled cucumbers - pickled cucumbers will not work here. You can take any part of pork: neck, ham, and brisket. If you wish, you can take calf meat, beef, and even poultry meat. Or you can easily take sausages or sausage - just for your imagination!

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the onion and cut into cubes. To clean the onion better and not sting your eyes, pre-soak it in cold water for 20-30 minutes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the carrots with a brush in running water, peel them. It is best to use a vegetable peeler for this purpose - it cuts the skin very thinly. Grate the carrots on a medium grater. If desired, the cutting method can be changed.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash the pork well in running water, dry it, cut into medium-sized pieces.

5. STEP 5

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. You can take sunflower or olive, to your taste. But since we will be frying in oil, use refined types of oil so that it does not burn in the pan. Add the onion, fry over low heat for about 5 minutes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add carrots, stir and fry for another 5 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   Then place the meat in the pan, stir and continue frying. Frying time is about 10 minutes.

8. STEP 8

   

   Wash the cucumbers, dry them, cut off the butts and cut into cubes. Add cucumbers to the pan. Choose the cutting method to suit your taste.

9. STEP 9

   

   Then add tomato paste to the pan and stir. If suddenly there is no tomato paste available, you can replace it with tomato juice or ketchup. Simmer everything together for 5-7 minutes.

10. STEP 10

    

    Wash the cabbage well, remove 2-3 top leaves and chop.

11. STEP 11

    

    Add cabbage to the pan. Stirring vigorously, fry everything together for another 7-10 minutes.

12. STEP 12

    

    Peel the garlic, chop and add to the pan. I put a clove of garlic through a press, but you can also grate it or chop it with a knife.

13. STEP 13

    

    Mix all the ingredients, add salt, and let sit for 10-15 minutes so that the cabbage becomes softer. Our classic solyanka at home is ready!

14. STEP 14

    

    Place the finished dish on plates and serve hot. Bon appetit!

For dinner I made a cabbage soup with pork. This dish is very tasty! I simply adore this combination of products, my husband agrees with me. But our children just love stewed cabbage; they didn’t eat it with us) But I didn’t deny myself the amount of garlic and spices! My pork was fatty, tender and juicy. I fried it with virtually no added oil. I usually fry the meat separately and then combine it with vegetables. But according to the recipe, you need to add the ingredients sequentially, so I followed the recipe. I didn’t cut the pickled cucumber into cubes, I grated it along with the carrots. I think it turns out more uniform this way. I took 1.5 times more products. To do this, I used a convenient calculator. For this amount of vegetables and meat I took four cloves of garlic. I also added paprika and black pepper. It turned out, well, very tasty, spicy, juicy and satisfying! Thanks for the recipe, we liked it)
