Borscht from young cabbage

Description

This is a very summer version of borscht. And, frankly, it is better to cook it with water or vegetable broth, and not with beef. A very important ingredient is baked (baked, not boiled!) Beets. It will give borscht the right flavor and richness. And don't overcook the cabbage! it should remain slightly crispy.

Cooking

Step 1

Shred the cabbage. Cut the onion into small strips, the beetroot into small cubes, the radish into thin (almost transparent) slices. Cut 3 garlic cloves in half.

Step 2

Sauté the onion and garlic in a heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat with the vegetable oil, 3 minutes. Add cabbage and cook, stirring, 4-5 minutes more.

Step 3

Add beets and broth. Boil 15 min. Reduce the heat and cook for another 15-20 minutes until the beets are soft.

Step 4

Pound finely chopped parsley with salt and the remaining garlic in a mortar. Mix with sour cream.

Step 5

Divide the borscht into bowls, top with the sour cream dressing and, last but not least, the radishes. Serve right away.
