Zazharka is a vegetable mixture heated in a frying pan and added to borscht or some other soup.
Thanks to this component, the first course acquires richness, richness and a very beautiful color.
But the above results will not be achieved if the frying is not prepared correctly.
Want to get the perfect borscht? Then before and during sautéing vegetables, follow these rules:
Correct cutting
Of course, you can add grated beets and carrots to the frying pan.
But it is better to cut these root vegetables into strips. In this case, the finished dish will be much more appetizing.
The onion can be cut into strips or cubes.
Melted butter
It is better to sauté chopped vegetables not in vegetable oil, but in ghee.
This is another secret of the bright taste of the fried vegetables (and borscht in general).
Do not cover the pan with a lid
This mistake will cause the vegetable mixture to lose its vibrant color.
The beetroot straws will stop being richly brown. As a result, you will most likely not be able to make ruby borscht.
But if you don’t cover the pan with a lid, you’ll get a vegetable additive that will give the soup an appetizing appearance.
