Step by step recipe with photo

Georgian solyanka is a very aromatic soup with a bright taste. Its thickness to taste is regulated by the amount of added broth, i.e. it is either thin or thick soup if desired. Traditionally, it is eaten by scooping up pita bread … Sometimes I add beans to the indicated composition for greater satiety.

Prepare beef or veal, pickles, tomato paste, onions, broth, wine, basil, suneli hops, coriander, cilantro, garlic.

Cut the meat into oblong pieces and fry in a hot dry frying pan.

Then add vegetable oil and chopped onions, lightly salt and simmer all together for about 15 minutes.

Pour in a glass of wine or broth mixed with tomato paste, simmer for another 15-20 minutes.

Add cucumbers and all the spices, simmer for five minutes.

Pour in hot broth until desired thickness, stir, let it brew for a few minutes.

Serve Georgian hodgepodge with fresh cilantro (or whatever you like).

Enjoy your meal!
