Almost all people like borsch, but many do not knowthe recipe for cooking this delicious soup. And sometimes a Ukrainian dish can even be spoiled. Now borsch with beans is very popular. It seems to be at first glance in the preparation of anything complicated. However, there are some nuances that must be considered. Otherwise, the soup will not be the same as it would be desirable to cook initially. Before starting to prepare, it is highly recommended to read the recipe. What products will we need? The first thing you need to buy meat. It should have a bright red color. Moreover, after feeling a piece of beef, the hand will remain dry. As a rule, we choose young meat. In order to determine this, you must press your index finger on the carcass. If after pressing the formed fovea disappeared, then such meat can be bought. And if not, the meat is old and not the fact that it can be consumed. To make soup you need about 1-1.5 kg of beef.
What beans to buy?
Next, you will need to buy beans. Some buy ready-made beans in canned food. No difference. Simply weighed beans need to be soaked for the night in cold water or for 6-7 hours. Then cook for about 30-40 minutes (depends on the bean variety). After this it is necessary to drain the water and rinse it thoroughly with warm water. Still need beets, about 3-4 pcs. (depends on the size and number of servings). And, of course, do not forget about potatoes. It is very important that the potatoes are not frozen (fir is bought in the winter period of time). Approximate quantity - 3-4 pieces. But carrots and onions can be taken for 1 piece. And it's important not to forget about cabbage (1 fork). Borscht is a high-calorie dish. Therefore, a very important product in the preparation of this soup is fat (sometimes the recipe does not contain such a product). 1 kg of fat is approximately worth 150-180 rubles. Many forget about tomatoes. But if you cook soup without this vegetable, then the taste will turn out to be fresh. Gourmets will immediately be able to determine whether tomato was added to borscht or not (about 1-2 pieces). The recipe also includes 1-2 cloves of garlic, which make the soup really tasty. Tomato paste is also an important ingredient in the preparation of borscht. It is advisable to purchase pasta from the company "Kubanochka" or "Global Village".
Only olive oil
A very big mistake many make is oliveoil instead of vegetable. This can not be done categorically. Some girls, adding vegetable oil in borsch with beans, think that the soup will be less caloric. As a result, it will be possible to prepare borsch with an unpleasant aftertaste. The recipe prescribes to buy only vegetable oil, preferably "Oleina". It is important not to be mistaken with vinegar. You need to buy apple cider vinegar Baltimore. And I think that salt, sugar and black pepper are at everyone's. Well, if it does not exist or it is not enough, then it will be necessary to buy it. And the final ingredients are spices (dill, parsley, coriander). When all the products are bought, you can start cooking borsch with beans. So, the first thing to do is to cook a piece of meat (500-600 grams). Cook need about 1-1.5 hours. Then strain it and set it aside for a while. Then you need to take the necessary amount of beetroot and grate it. Next, you must put it in a saucepan and pour the meat broth. Beets should be cooked for 40-45 minutes over low heat. And most importantly - do not forget about sugar (1 teaspoon) and vinegar (1 tablespoon). The simplest thing is done. Now we have to put out the vegetables. Prepare them too easily. In order not to waste time and not wait until the beets are extinguished, you can clean the carrots. Then it should be grated. The onion should be chopped very finely. And the fat should be cut into small cubes. Well, then it is necessary to melt this fat in a frying pan (it is desirable that the frying pan has a dense bottom) and add the onions with carrots. All this must be well fried. There you also need to add tomatoes, previously peeled and cut into cubes. Preliminary, tomatoes should first pour boiling water, and then with cold water. And do not forget about garlic. It should also be finely chopped and fried with the rest of the products in sunflower oil. Then add the tomato paste and a little pepper. After the beet has been cooked, it is necessary to add the remaining vegetables to it and mix thoroughly on low heat. Then put the mixture in a cup and let it brew for 5-6 minutes. At this time, you need to pour the water into a saucepan and put on a slow fire. Then peel the potatoes and cut into cubes. The next step is to "send" the potatoes to the pan. Then it is necessary to cut cabbage (preferably straws) and add to the water with potatoes. Well, and when the potatoes are cooked, you need to add the rest of the vegetables that were previously fried in a frying pan. And do not forget about the most important thing - beans. Cook it still need for 5-6 minutes. You can still add salt and seasonings. The soup is ready! You can serve with sour cream. The recipe is quite simple.
