Ingredients

Butter - 6 tablespoons
Sauerkraut - 3.5 oz
Tomato Puree - 2 tablespoons

Parsley - 1 piece
Carrot - 1 piece

Sour Cream - 5 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Soak the beans in cold water for 2–3 hours. Then boil them in slightly salted water until cooked. Set the pot with the beans and broth aside.

Step 2

Place the sauerkraut in a pot, add diced butter (set aside a little for sautéing the vegetables), tomato puree, sugar, and a bit of hot water. Put the pot on medium heat and simmer until the cabbage is soft, stirring constantly.

Step 3

Meanwhile, rinse and peel the carrot, parsley root, and onion. Slice the carrot and parsley into thin rounds. Grate the onion finely. Sauté the vegetables in a small amount of melted butter until soft.

Step 4

Shortly before the cabbage is ready, add the sautéed vegetables to the pot and mix everything together. Season with salt, pepper, add spices, and pour in the bean broth along with the beans. Mix well, bring to a boil, and remove the pot from the heat.
