Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make borscht with sausage and beets? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. This borscht can be cooked with meat broth or simply with water. I had meat broth. I used it to cook borscht. Peel all vegetables in advance and rinse thoroughly in running water to remove contaminants. I use boiled sausage for borscht. But you can also take smoked one. If your beets are small, then take 2 pieces.

Bring the broth to a boil. Cut the peeled potatoes into small cubes. Place the chopped potatoes in the boiling broth and cook for 10 minutes.
