I heard about this recipe, but I didn’t have to try it. But I’ll definitely try it, I think it will be delicious. I would also like to recommend an interesting version of chicken soup with rice and tomato paste.

A very interesting recipe, I have never mixed different types of cereals before. I was interested in krupnik and I prepared this Belarusian soup strictly according to the recipe with buckwheat and potatoes. First I made chicken broth from a soup kit. Then I put potatoes, buckwheat, and rice. Separately, I cooked the onions and carrots in a frying pan. I added meat, roasting, and spices to the soup. I didn’t add greens to the pan for my own reasons, but put chopped dill on everyone’s plate. Preparing the dish is very simple and not time-consuming. We really liked the Belarusian peasant soup. An excellent combination of several grains in one plate. The result was a rich and aromatic soup, very tasty and satisfying. For me, this new product will now become a permanent guest on the dining table. Thank you!
