Solyanka of sauerkraut with meat

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make hodgepodge from sauerkraut with meat? Prepare your food. Take naturally fermented cabbage, without vinegar - it’s both tastier and healthier. Choose meat that is fattier; a shoulder or neck is perfect - the dish will be juicier. Take any smoked meats, for me it’s sausage and brisket, ribs are perfect.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the garlic and crush it with the flat side of the knife. Chop it finely.

3. STEP 3

   

   Also peel and finely chop the onion.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash and dry the meat, then cut into medium pieces.

5. STEP 5

   

   Cut the smoked sausage into cubes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Also slice the smoked brisket.

7. STEP 7

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the onion and garlic on it until golden brown.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place the meat here and fry it until light golden brown.

9. STEP 9

   

   Add smoked meats and fry everything together for 3-4 minutes, stirring.

10. STEP 10

    

    Add tomato juice (or diluted tomato paste) and simmer the meat under the lid for 4-5 minutes.

11. STEP 11

    

    Add pepper; you don’t need to add salt now—you’ll do it at the end, after tasting the finished dish, since the cabbage already contains salt.

12. STEP 12

    

    Add sauerkraut. If it is sour, then first rinse it in a colander with running water. I like it sour, so I didn’t rinse it.

13. STEP 13

    

    Simmer the hodgepodge under the lid for 1.5 hours on the lowest heat, stirring and adding water from time to time. At the end, taste the cabbage and add salt to taste.

14. STEP 14

    

    Solyanka with meat is ready. Bon appetit!
