Tips

  1. When frying tomato sauce, be sure to stir-fry over low heat. The frying time is very short. If the frying time is too long, it will stick to the pan and become black and burnt. If you want the cabbage in the borscht to be crispier, add salt before serving it out of the pot, so that the cabbage will not collapse and retain the crisp texture and vegetable aroma of the cabbage.
