Green borscht with nettle, sorrel and egg in meat broth

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   Ingredients

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour water over the meat and bring to a boil.

3. STEP 3

   

   When the meat comes to a boil, skim off the fat.

4. STEP 4

   

   Rinse the beans and add to the meat. Cook for about an hour.

5. STEP 5

   

   At this time, we clean and rinse the vegetables under running water.

6. STEP 6

   

   We chop the potatoes randomly and after an hour, during which our beans and meat were cooked, add the potatoes and cook for another 30 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   Finely chop the onion, grate the carrots on a coarse grater

8. STEP 8

   

   Pour oil into a frying pan and add onion, fry until transparent.

9. STEP 9

   

   Add carrots and cook until half cooked.

10. STEP 10

    

    Add the carrots and onions to the borscht and cook for another 10 minutes. At this stage, you add your favorite spices and herbs (optional) that you love, and also salt the dish.

11. STEP 11

    

    chop chicken eggs

12. STEP 12

    

    chop the greens

13. STEP 13

    

    Add eggs and herbs to the borscht and bring to a boil.

14. STEP 14

    

    As soon as it boils, turn it off. Sorrel immediately changes color when exposed to temperature. To preserve the aesthetics of the dish and the nutrients, you should not cook the greens. Just bring to a boil. Let's try. Add salt and citric acid to taste.

15. STEP 15

    

    Decorate with half an egg and serve with sour cream :) Bon appetit!

Green borscht with nettle, sorrel and egg in meat broth interested me primarily because of the presence of nettle. I love soups with nettles, so at the beginning of summer I collect it and, washed and chopped, put it in bags and freeze it. So for this soup I used frozen nettles. I only had 170 grams of beans left, so I added all of them to the soup. The only thing I didn't have was sorrel. The broth, as suggested in the recipe, was cooked with beef. I prepared green borscht in accordance with the author’s recommendations. The soup turned out amazing: rich, thick, very aromatic, satisfying and incredibly tasty. The whole family liked this soup. I think sorrel would make it even tastier, adding a pleasant sourness. Thank you very much for the recipe!

I have long wanted to learn how to cook borscht with nettles. I had no idea what the taste of this green borscht should be, but I still decided to cook it. I did everything step by step and strictly according to your recipe. The borscht turned out to be very rich, tasty and with a pleasant sourness.
