Cabbage Solyanka with Meat
Main Dishes • Russian
Description
This isn't the Russian solyanka that is a soup. This is a simplified Soviet version made with stewed cabbage and meat. There's almost no effort required—cabbage, pork, and bacon will do all the work. The main thing is to toss them together in a large pot, put it on the heat, and leave it alone for a while.
Ingredients
- White Cabbage 5 lbs
- Pork Blood 20 oz
- Bacon 5 oz
- Onion 2 heads
- Carrot 2 pieces
- Passata Tomato Sauce 0 oz
- Salt to taste
- Ground Black Pepper to taste
