Preparation steps

01

Prepare the meat — Cut the beef and pork into 2×2 cm pieces, cover with cold water and cook over medium heat. ⏱ 60 min. Guideline: The meat should be tender and easily pierced with a fork.

02

Preparing the vegetables and sausages — Dice the onion and grate the carrots using a coarse grater. Cut all the sausages into cubes or slices. ⏱ 10 min. Guideline: All ingredients should be the same size.

03

Sautéing the vegetables — Fry the onions and carrots in heated oil until golden brown, add the tomato paste and sauté for another 3 minutes. ⏱ 8 min. Guideline: The vegetables should be soft and the tomato paste should have darkened.

04

Assembling the solyanka — Add the sautéed vegetables, sliced sausage, cucumbers, olives, capers, bay leaf and pepper to the prepared meat broth. ⏱ 15 min. Guideline: All ingredients are heated through, the soup has come to a boil.

05

Tip Solyanka tastes best 2-3 hours after preparation, when all the ingredients have had time to exchange flavours. It can be prepared in advance and reheated before serving.
