When it is ready, we remove the bone and add the minced meat to the soup. It usually takes an hour to cook.

Immediately add the potatoes and cabbage to the pan.

Prepare a stir-fry with carrots, onions, tomatoes and tomato paste. Fry the beets separately without any additives. Tomato paste will be responsible for preserving the color and sourness.
