Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make classic okroshka on kvass with sausage? Prepare all the necessary products that are indicated on the list. Which sausage is best to use? Take any to your taste, it can be boiled sausage, half-smoked, sausages or sausages. The recipe used boiled sausage.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the potatoes thoroughly with a brush to remove any remaining soil, sand, etc. Wash the eggs as well. Pre-boil the potatoes and eggs until tender, and then cool.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the potatoes and shell the eggs. Wash the radish thoroughly, remove the places where the leaves and tail are attached.

Step 4

Step 4
Cut potatoes and eggs into small cubes. The finished okroshka will look very appetizing if all the components are cut into cubes of the same size. Sometimes I use a vegetable slicer to speed up the cutting process. Place the potatoes and eggs in a deep bowl or small saucepan.

Step 5

Step 5
Wash and dry the cucumbers. If the peel is bitter, it must be removed. Cut the cucumbers and radishes into cubes and add them to the potatoes and eggs.

Step 6

Step 6
Grind the sausage in the same way and add it to the rest of the products. If you prefer to replace sausages with meat, then use boiled beef, tongue or chicken breast. An important point is that boiled meat should not be fatty, since okroshka is a cold soup, pieces of fat will harden in it.

Step 7

Step 7
Chop the onion and dill as finely as possible. To make the okroshka more flavorful, the greens can be ground with a pestle and mortar. Add herbs to all ingredients.

Step 8

Step 8
Mix all products well.

Step 9

Step 9
Distribute the resulting mixture portionwise into each personʼs plates and fill with kvass. Kvass can be used purchased or homemade. I like to add sour kvass to okroshka. If necessary, add salt to taste.

Step 10

Step 10
Add the required amount of sour cream, stir. Ready!
