Add and fry 1 minute, until fragrant.
⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
3
Add the carrot, beets and tomato paste and cook 5 minutes, stirring.
Stove
4
Add the water, potatoes and cabbage and bring to a boil.
Stove
5
Turn down the heat and simmer 35–40 minutes.
⚙ SimmeringStove
💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
6
Stir in the vinegar, sugar, salt and black pepper. Taste: the soup should be sweet-and-sour. Adjust to taste.
💡Balance at the end, once the flavors have come together: add sour, sweet and salty a little at a time, tasting between additions.
7
Serve hot in bowls, with a spoonful of the sour cream on each bowl, and sprinkle the parsley on top.
