Ingredients

Step cooking

1. Prepare the ingredients and work surface. It is best to use a cast iron cauldron with a lid. If this is not the case, a pan with a thick bottom and non-stick coating or a deep pan will do. Heat the cauldron over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes, then pour 50 ml of odorless vegetable oil.
   
2. While the oil is warming up, chop the onion with a medium cube.
   
3. Add the onion to the cauldron and fry for 3 - 5 minutes.
   
4. At this time, cut the meat into small cubes and put in a cauldron.
   
5. Stir occasionally, simmer for 10 minutes.
   
6. Next, we will deal with spices. In order to more fully reveal the aroma of zira and ground red pepper, pour them into a dry saucepan and put on a strong fire. Fry the spices for a minute. When a little smoke goes and the spices start to smell, remove from heat. Pour the spices into the mill or put in a mortar and grind. Spices are ready.
   
7. To the meat add 2 tbsp. l tomato paste, mix and simmer another 1 - 2 minutes. Instead of tomato paste, you can use mashed tomatoes.
   
8. Only at this stage we salt to taste and reduce the heat to medium.
   
9. Then cut the carrots into large slices and send to the cauldron to the rest of the ingredients.
   
10. Next, let's take a cabbage. Shred it with straws and put it in a deep bowl. To make the cabbage juicier and softer, salt it and take it with your hands so that the cabbage starts up the juice.
    
11. Pour the chopped spices to the cabbage, mix.
    
12. We send the cabbage to the cauldron, cover it and simmer for 10 minutes so that the cabbage settles. If all the cabbage does not fit immediately, wait a bit, the cabbage will settle under the lid and you can add more.
    
13. After 10 minutes, the cabbage decreased in volume, mix thoroughly so that all the ingredients combine well. If the cabbage is dry, you need to add a little water.
    
14. Cover with whole cabbage leaves, a small plate and a lid. Simmer for 40 minutes until all ingredients are cooked.
    
15. Put the finished dish on a beautiful plate, sprinkle with chopped herbs, at your discretion, and serve. Also, stewed cabbage can be served with sour cream. Enjoy your meal!
