Russian borscht with beef and sour cream
Russian borscht with beef and sour cream is a hearty and flavorful soup made with beets, cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and beef. It's traditionally served with a dollop of sour cream on top, which adds a creamy and tangy contrast to the rich broth and tender beef.
