Here's Front Line Kitchen's borscht recipe:

Ingredients:

pork (beef, chicken) preferably on the bone - 400 g,

cabbage - 400 g,

potatoes - 300 g,

beetroot - 200 g, carrots - 1-2 pcs.,

parsley root, parsnip, celery - 1 pc.,

bell pepper - 1 pc.,

onion - 1 pc.,

tomato puree - 2-3 tbsp. spoons,

oil for frying, garlic, dill and parsley greens, pepper, bay leaf, salt.

Preparation:

Red borscht is usually in broth, so it is boiled first. Next, cut the beets into strips, add salt, pour into a pan, fry in oil, adding tomato puree, bring to half-cooked. Onions, carrots, parsley root, parsnip and celery, and bell pepper should also be fried.

Throw the potatoes into the broth, bring it to half-cooked again, then put the cabbage and cook for another 10 minutes, and then season it with roasting and let it boil for another 5 minutes.

Garnish with garlic, green dill and parsley. Leave for 15-20 minutes before serving.
