Instructions
 

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large soup pot over medium heat.
  • Add pork sausage and cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon to break up the meat. Cook until brown, approximately 4 minutes.
  • Add onion, garlic, carrot, and beets. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes fragrant and translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes.
  • Add shredded cabbage, bay leaves, diced tomatoes, and water. Increase the heat to high. Bring soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cover with a lid. Allow the soup to simmer until the beets and cabbage are very soft, approximately one hour.
  • Uncover and remove the bay leaves. Stir in sugar and fresh dill.
  • Continue cooking for 5-10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream.
  • Enjoy!
