Pryshki green onions chop with a knife thin rings, and sausage and fresh cucumber - cubes. When eggs and potatoes are ready, cool them, then peel and cut into small pieces. Chop the parsley as small as possible. Now transfer all ingredients into one pan, pour kefir, then with water and to your taste, enter vinegar, salt and freshly ground pepper. Prepare the summer soup in different ways: some like to chop very finely foods, others, on the contrary, are somewhat larger. Each mistress arrives at her own discretion. Okroshka on kefir must be present for a while, then its taste will be more saturated. So put the dish in the fridge and wait a bit. We think this recipe will take root in every house, especially with the onset of spring and summer. By the way, table vinegar can be replaced with freshly squeezed sour lemon juice - the result will be the same.
